Get Involved

Volunteer

At Inglis, we always welcome new volunteers who want to share their time and talents.

Volunteers bring purposeful meaning and enhance the quality of life in the Inglis community and Inglis service recipients. There are many ways to get involved as an Inglis volunteer, whether volunteering with Inglis House, at one of our housing communities, or with one of our community-based programs.

If you are 16 years old or over, volunteer opportunities are available year-round with flexible shifts during the week. In addition, we have many exciting opportunities to get involved with special events and holidays! Inglis partners with local high schools and colleges for students to broaden their skills and gain real-world healthcare experience. Inglis hosts many one-day group experiences for corporations, schools, or community groups.
