COVID-19 Update
In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, as of Monday, March 16th, the IRC in Salt Lake City will suspend all volunteer activities at this time to help prevent further community spread in Salt Lake County. Without our volunteers and their generous efforts, the work at the IRC in Salt Lake City would not be possible. Thank you for your interest in continuing that work. We are still offering an online volunteer orientation - please email [email protected] for more information. At this time, we encourage you to support our Emergency Response Fund.

Volunteer process
Review our current available volunteer positions.
Plan to attend a Volunteer Information Session to learn more about the IRC SLC. Please email [email protected] with any questions.
After you’ve attended a volunteer information session, we’ll send you a volunteer application to complete.
The volunteer coordinator will contact you regarding potential volunteer opportunities as they become available and may schedule a phone or in-person interview. Please note that due to increased interest from passionate community members like yourself, do expect a wait of 3-6 months to get placed with a specific volunteer position.
You're ready to get started! Depending on your role, you'll either receive further training from your in-office department or wait to be matched with a family to tutor and/or mentor.
Track your volunteer hours and remember to submit them monthly to the volunteer coordinator.
