Volunteer Requirements
The minimum age to volunteer at CNIB is 14. Volunteers who work with clients, or client information, must be 19 or older.
All volunteers must fill out an application form (click here for our online form), and attend an interview, orientation, and training.
Some volunteer positions are short term (special events, Shades of Fun campaigns, etc). Other positions ask for a regular weekly or monthly commitment for a minimum of six months.
Volunteers must abide by our Volunteer Code of Conduct. It outlines what you can expect from CNIB, and what CNIB expects from you.
You must complete AODA training to volunteer with CNIB. You can complete the training online anytime. Your local Coordinator, Volunteer Services will provide you with a signature form to confirm you've completed the training.
Every position description outlines the specific requirements for that role.
