Become a Volunteer
International Bipolar Foundation Volunteer Opportunities
Our need for volunteers varies from month to month. Whether we find a match for your offer right away or not, we appreciate your offer and will keep you in mind. If you can spare just a couple of hours a week or can make a larger commitment, we invite you to join our volunteer network. You can use your current skills and learn new ones, make new friends, and help other families. We know, from our own experience, that it can be deeply satisfying and empowering to turn one's hard-won experience into valuable and compassionate assistance, advice and advocacy.
