VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES

Volunteers have varied backgrounds with a broad range of experiences and educational expertise.  They generously donate their time, energy and spirit to help the people we serve. In many cases, our volunteers are a connection to, and an extension of, the many services provided by Jewish Family Service of Greater New Haven.

Volunteers not only help enrich the lives of others, but also learn and gain from their experiences.

Volunteering takes on many forms. Whether you have an hour a day, a few hours a week, are looking to fulfill community service hours, or you would just like to be involved in special projects, we may have an assignment for you!

Share your energy … Share your commitment…
