Volunteer Physicians, Dentists, Pharmacists, Nurse Practioners, Nurses, Dental Assistants, and Certified Pharmacy Technicians provide medical, dental, and pharmaceutical assistance to eligible Rockbridge Area Free Clinic patients.

The Student Volunteer program provides a valuable opportunity for students to earn community service hours needed for college admission, scholarships, honor societies, scouts, or just to make a difference. It's also a great way to find out what a career in health care is really like! It's worth mentioning that students do fill positions as both professional and administrative volunteers.

To become a volunteer, you will need to:

• Complete a short application
• Submit a reference
• Receive a personal interview
• Attend a Volunteer Orientation session
• Set times to volunteer

Volunteering offers the chance to use your existing skills to help others. It also gives you the opportunity to develop new skills, make friends, explore a career in health care, and gain work experience.
