About becoming a volunteer

Volunteers who work with OUTLine NZ are the backbone of our organisation and the people who volunteer for us come from all walks of life.

Our training is comprehensive. From it you will learn non-directive telephone counselling skills, increase you knowledge of our communities, develop your personal growth, and make new friends. We also provide after-training supervision and monthly ongoing training.

Reason you should become a volunteer

You should become a volunteer to...

    - learn new skills or upgrade old ones
    - gain a certificate for your CV
    - build a manual of skills and information
    - access our gay and lesbian library
    - gain more personal development
    - gain a wider knowledge of our communities
    - gain new friends and widen your support network
    - contribute to our communities
    - gain the privilege and joy of empowering other gay and lesbian people and their significant others

OUTLine NZ is offering all of this to new volunteers as they train to become volunteer telephone counsellors.

The next training

Begins September 6 and continues with 30 hours of training over three weeks

Criteria

The basic requirement is that you are a self-accepting GLBTT person who is interested in supporting others through their journey.
