Volunteer
Volunteers can work directly with guests or behind the scenes. Special skill sets, like haircutting, massage, or office work are wonderful, but if you simply like people and want to meet a few cool humans, Listening House is a great place to visit.
Welcome - We’re Glad You’re Here
Your 45-minute onboarding is more than an introduction — it’s an invitation.
You’ll tour our space, learn about the culture of homelessness, and explore our person-centered approach to radical hospitality. There will also be time to share what led you to our doors, and what you hope to experience through volunteering.
We believe real connection takes time. For that reason, we ask volunteers to come prepared to consider a weekly or bi-weekly commitment. Trust, respect, and relationship grow through consistency — and we strive to honor the vulnerability of every life that enters our doors.
Come experience the quiet power of radical hospitality — and witness how simply showing up for people who have forgotten their own worth can be profoundly life-giving. We look forward to meeting you.
Listening House hosts volunteer onboarding every week. If you or your group would like to attend a session, please use the calendar below to sign up for an upcoming session. You must be at least 18 years of age to volunteer. For any questions, contact our Volunteer Coordinator, Andrea Hinderaker, at andrea@listeninghouse.org. Parking is located right behind our building in the alleyway.
