Being a Shanti volunteer is a rewarding and life-changing experience.
Shanti volunteers come from many different backgrounds and represent all walks of life.
People fluent in Spanish or American Sign Language are encouraged to apply. By providing active, non-judgmental listening and a comforting, sustaining relationship, Shanti volunteers help empower clients to identify and meet their own needs. This powerful training is about you as much as it is about your potential clients. We hope to offer you some ways to take care of yourself, as well as some methods to improve your connections with others. Volunteers inevitably become better listeners and communicators after this experience.
