Become a Volunteer
The programs and services of NAMI San Francisco are provided by volunteers. We have all been affected by mental illness — as family members, as friends, or as individuals living with severe mental illnesses. NAMI volunteers around the country donate an estimated $135 million worth of time each year to education, support, and advocacy.
​
Volunteers help in a variety of ways, such as:
-
Representing NAMI San Francisco at public outreach events, fairs, parades, panels and other meetings across the county and beyond
-
Participating in and administering NAMI Signature Programs
-
Responding to public resource requests on our Helpline
-
Assisting in the day-to-day office administration
-
Writing or editing content for social media and website publication
-
Inspiring us with new ideas and fresh perspectives on mental health in our communities
NAMI SF also offers internship positions to select students so they might gain experience in non-profit work.
