One in 5 people is affected by serious mental illness in the US in any given year. NAMI is the nation's largest grass roots organization comprised of mostly volunteers. We are Charitable Magazine's choice for one of 100 top organizations most likely to change the world. And we're doing just that! We offer free education classes, support groups, and resources to families in crisis. Our volunteers reach out to the community to let them know we're here to help. We do interviews and radio shows. We advocate for better systems of care for people with mental health conditions. We eliminate stigma!
NAMI-SFV needs energetic Recruitment Assistants with an easy smile to help others join our extraordinarily timely and necessary mission. Here's what you'll be thoroughly trained to do:
- Make return calls and/or send standard response email to people already interested in volunteering to welcome them to our community
- Ask predetermined questions to gauge interest and skills in order to match potential volunteers with available opportunities
- Add their pertinent information to our database
- Send potential volunteers an application to complete and return electronically
- Send potential volunteer confirmation and follow-up emails based on roles assigned by recruiters
- Ensure volunteers receive an invitation to our onboarding process
- Obtain email and database credentials for applicable volunteers
- Promote our community-centric culture by exemplifying it (Kindness, Authenticity, Creativity, Diversity & Transparency)

Mission Statement
NAMI SFV aims to build a close-knit community to support, advocate for, and educate anyone affected by mental illness.
Description
NAMI, the National Alliance on Mental Illness, is the nation’s largest grassroots mental health organization dedicated to building better lives for the millions of Americans affected by mental illness.
Started as a small group of families gathered around a kitchen table in 1979, NAMI has blossomed into the nation's leading voice on mental health. Today, NAMI is an association of hundreds of local affiliates, state organizations and volunteers who work in your community to raise awareness and provide support and education that was not previously available to those in need. NAMI relies on gifts and contributions to support its important work.
