VOLUNTEERInner Hope Youth Ministries is a community created to provide a place of belonging, a place of love, and a place of growth for inner-city youth and their families. All of our programs are formed around mutually transformative long term relationships, treating those we journey alongside with dignity and respect; valuing cultural heritage and supporting our community's desire for greater stability.
If you would like to know a bit more of what Inner Hope does in the community, our programs and different ways you can volunteer contact Priscila Vargas (HR & Volunteer Coordinator) at volunteer@innerhope.ca, 778.895.HOPE (4673). |
HOW IT WORKS*
1. Inquire
Complete the online form below or contact our volunteer coordinator to inquire about becoming a volunteer. You will be contacted by our volunteer coordinator for an in-person meeting to get to know your journey and your spiritual life, and also give you an overview of our programs and volunteer needs.
2. Screen
After the first in-person meeting, our volunteer coordinator will guide you through the screening process. Personal references, background checks and driving record checks are conducted.
3. Orientation
All volunteers complete an in-person 1-hour orientation to review our policies, learn about their responsibilities and our expectations and also gather any other information needed.
4. Match*
If you choose to mentor a youth, the Boundless Program Coordinator will select and match based upon multiple variables with a goal of creating a long-term supportive relationship.
5. Start Volunteering
Sometimes it’s building meaningful relationships with youth and sometimes it’s serving behind the scenes to meet the needs of the community by cooking, doing repairs, or offering your expertise in a variety of ways (groups welcome). It is always about sharing life with youth and their families.
6. We Support You
Inner Hope supports our volunteers. We offer volunteer training and help you problem solve when you need it.
* This process might vary depending on the type of volunteering you will be doing. Any volunteering that involves direct contact with the youth of our community will require all the steps and screening mentioned above.
