YHI volunteers can serve in three separate capacities:
Partners in Health – Partners in Health will be paired with members to form Health Teams. Volunteers are expected to participate in the health discussions and grocery shopping trips. We are accepting a maximum of twenty-five Partners in Health.
Time Commitment – Twenty hours throughout the semester:
- Eight two-hour blocks on Saturday afternoons (12:30pm-2:30pm)
- Volunteer Orientation
- Meet & Greet BBQ
Please contact Mohamad Issa (moeissa@umich.edu) for more information.
Health Discussion Committee — Committee members, under the guidance of our Health Directors, will help plan and present effective health discussions on Saturday afternoons. Committee members can participate in coordinating as many or as few health discussions as they want, but they must also serve as Partners in Health and plan to attend a majority of the health sessions.
Please contact Maral Banan (mmbanana@umich.edu) or Danielle Jacobs (dbrooke@umich.edu) for more information.
Family Committee — Committee members will help with recruitment, retention, member satisfaction, needs assessment, and program evaluation. Ideally, committee members would also serve as Partners in Health, but we would love to have you either way.
Please contact Lauren Darmamin (laurdarm@umich.edu) for more information.
