What?

There is a job for everyone! Volunteers from all professions and education/experience levels have been vital to our thriving brigades since 2010. We need YOUR help! 

The Dominican Republic brigade is our newest site, where you can get in on the ground floor as we build up the process and team to deliver consistent connection, healthcare, medication, smiles, and love for years to come. This is our only brigade where we have a large group of local medical professionals, so our greatest need is for support teammates that empower the Dominican doctors to focus on their patients.

During this mutually life-changing brigade experience, volunteers without medical backgrounds have the unique opportunity to (while volunteers with medical backgrounds treat patients):

• Spend time with children while their parents visit healthcare professionals
• Teach children (sometimes adults) how to properly brush their teeth
• Apply fluoride treatment to teeth
• Count thousands of vitamins and medications distributed each day
• Distribute thousands of vitamins to help counter malnutrition
• Distribute hundreds of anti-parasite treatments to help counter waterborne diseases
• Welcome neighbors
• Intake/Register/Prepare neighbors for the clinic
• Escort/Guide/Direct neighbors through the process
• Bilingual Volunteers can also help translate

Community Service Brigades are not possible without medical professionals! Globalize your healing art and sharpen medical wisdom as you address levels of need unknown in the developed world. Each brigade requires at least two adult doctors, two pediatricians, and one pharmacist. Dentists, Dental Hygienists, EMTs, Medical Assistants, Nurse Practitioners, Nurses, Medical Assistants, OBGyns, Psychosocial Support Professionals (with a master’s level certification or above), Specialty Doctors & more are desired so we can provide well-rounded medical care. 

Students of Education, Healthcare, Nonprofit, Social Services and many others can gain direct experience in their field while making generational impact.
