How to volunteer at the East Side Institute

Help Build a New Psychology!
Volunteer with the East Side Institute

Founded in the 1970s, the East Side Institute, like many non-profit organizations, has largely been powered by volunteers – many of them trained professionals – working with us in a variety of capacities. This support has given us the independence to be as creative, innovative and cutting-edge as we would like to be!

To this day, 95% of our faculty and staff are volunteers who play a key role in building our organization and the programs we provide to the community. We are always looking for new volunteers and interns to work with us – and have a dynamic internship and volunteer program that can be tailored to your individual or academic needs, your schedule and skill set.

Help us maintain our innovative, cutting edge programs by becoming part of the Institute’s volunteer community.

Opportunities include:

• Production staff for Institute workshops and events
• Database entry and management
• Marketing and design
• Other (If you have other talents you’d like to offer, please let us know!)

Volunteers are encouraged to attend various Institute workshops and classes.

We also urge you to attend one of our Open House/Salons, which introduce new friends and colleagues to our work.

Upcoming salon:

Wednesday, October 26, 7-8:30pm

Internships are available for college credit – speak to the Institute and your school to
find out if you are eligible.
