AIDS Committee of Newfoundland and Labrador (ACNL)

Crohn’s and Colitis Canada is the only national, volunteer-based charity focused on finding the cures for Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis and improving the lives of children and adults affected by these diseases. We are one of the top two health charity funders of Crohn’s and colitis research in the world, investing over $140 million in research since 1974, leading to important breakthroughs in genetics, gut microbes, inflammation and cell repair as well as laying the groundwork for new and better treatments. We are transforming the lives of people affected by Crohn’s and colitis (the two main forms of inflammatory bowel disease) through research, patient programs, advocacy, and awareness

There is a great need in our community for people like you to listen, believe, and support those affected by sexual violence. Our next training cycle begins January 30, 2024. Our volunteer supporters become part of a dedicated group of people who provide an invaluable service to survivors of sexual violence all across Newfoundland and Labrador. Involvement with the ESVNL provides volunteer supporters the opportunity to gain experience, knowledge, and skills in many areas, including crisis intervention, advocacy, not-for-profit organizations, and a variety of issues related to sexual violence. The trained individuals on our 24 hours crisis and support line are dedicated and passionate. Our volunteer supporters provide empathy, support, and trauma-informed responses for vulnerable individuals who need varying degrees of support. As part of this wonderful team not only will training be provided, but there is ongoing support and debriefing. Training is done virtually over zoom. This volunteer opportunity is flexible. Volunteers choose their own 4 hour shifts each month, and work from home. For more information email sva@endsexualviolence.com
