Volunteer
We are always looking for a few good volunteers! Volunteers at APRI provide important support to our clients and staff and ensure that we can deliver urgently needed services to our community. All APRI Volunteers need to complete the Family Service RI (FSRI) volunteer on-boarding process. APRI Volunteers generally fall into one of three categories.
Volunteer Testers
APRI is actively seeking volunteers who are willing and able to complete the State of Rhode Island Qualified Professional Test Counselor certification, and administer HIV/HCV tests in the community. APRI is performing testing at our Hope Street location, the Megaplex, various community events, and on college campuses across the state.
Support Volunteers
Support Volunteers help APRI staff deliver quality care through providing “behind the scenes” support through creating safer sex packets for distribution, occasional assistance with physical mailings, and tending to other miscellaneous details around the office.
Event Volunteers
Event Volunteers help staff the APRI resource table at various community events. These events include, but are not limited to, RI Pride, the RI Rally 4 Recovery, and the APRI Run/Walk for Life. Event Volunteers also help provide hospitality when APRI hosts community events at one of our sites.
Careers
APRI and FSRI are always looking for motivated individuals who are committed to helping others and making their communities healthier and happier. APRI is currently fully staffed, but take a look at what other opportunities there are at FSRI!
