Become a volunteer!


It takes many volunteers to help make JumpStart a success. The following are specific roles that will be involved:

  • Family Advocate
    Assist and direct families as they move through the clinic and receive the services they need. Advocates will serve as a guide, help fill out paperwork, and be a personal connection to the clinic. This role is rewarding and essential to the success of the clinic.
  • Admin
    Handing out and organizing the appropriate paperwork to prepare families and students for the clinic. (Registration at the front door, organizing the flow of waiting lines)
  • Copies
    Making and organizing copies for families before they leave the clinic.
  • Hospitality
    Helping families have a great experience as guests of the clinic. (Handing out water, moving chairs, serving food)

* You may be asked to take on a different role on the day of JumpStart to help make the event run as smoothly as possible.

 

ALL MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS ARE COVERED UNDER THE GOOD SAMARITAN ACT (745 ILCS)
