The Crisis Center could not support the community to the extent that it does without the support of volunteers. There are a variety of opportunities with varying requirements, time commitments, and client interaction available.
Volunteer OpportunitiesVolunteers must be 18 years or older. Due to the highly sensitive nature of the work, all volunteer and intern positions require a Level II background/fingerprinting check. The cost is $90 and is the financial responsibility of the volunteer/intern applicant. This fee will be reimbursed upon completion of 96 hours of services.

They provide emergency food assistance and personal items to those in need. They assist families and individuals who are stranded and disconnected from their support systems. They work hand-in-hand with the airport chaplains as well as the Case Managers at the Crisis Center. They also provide mail service with stamps for the US and overseas, and pack and ship items not allowed through security.

Studies have shown that women and people of color are less likely to apply for jobs unless they believe they are able to perform every task in the job description. We are most interested in finding the best candidate for the job, and that candidate may be one who comes from a less traditional background. The Crisis Center of Tampa Bay will consider any equivalent combination of knowledge, skills, education, and experience to meet minimum qualifications. If you are interested in applying, we encourage you to think broadly about your background and skill set for the role. We want you to be YOU, and you're encouraged to apply today!
