Volunteer
Opportunities:
Phone Volunteer
Have the AIS office
number forwarded to your home or cell phone for a few hours at a
time. Help callers find meetings, and answer questions about
Al-Anon. Refer callers to phone numbers of outside organizations such
as AA when needed. Connect callers who need to talk longer with
members willing to make 12th step calls.
12th Step Caller
Call people who
have given their name and number to a phone volunteer, and share your
experience, strength, and hope with them while encouraging them to try
our program. If you are fluent in a foreign language, you can also be
available for callers who speak that language.
Office Volunteer
Come to the AIS
office in downtown Seattle for half a day. Answer the phone, sell
literature, and help with various clerical tasks. Many Metro buses
stop right in front of the office, and bus fare is reimbursed.
Parking is also located nearby.
Phone Scheduler
Spend a few hours
per month scheduling other volunteers to answer the AIS phone after
office hours. The entire job can be done from home via phone or
email. Each scheduler is responsible for one day of the week, and
each day contains four to six phone shifts.
