Volunteer

Our volunteers come from diverse backgrounds, speak different languages and bring a range of expertise, knowledge and lived experience. Together, we increase ASAAP’s capacity to respond to emerging needs and provide South Asians with opportunities to contribute to the fight against HIV/AIDS.

  • Valuable experience with a community-based health organization
  • Ongoing feedback mechanisms
  • A growing professional network
