Thank you for your interest in volunteering with Sea Mar Community Health Centers. We ask volunteers to make, at minimum, a 3 month commitment of 4 hours per week. However, we do offer some positions that are more flexible. Here is a guide to some of the positions that volunteers fill at Sea Mar. This list changes regularly and some positions are more difficult to get into than others. Positions also vary by location. Talk with the volunteer coordinator about current openings and qualifications.
