What
Phone Line Volunteers are the core spirit of OUTline. These volunteers identify within the lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, intersex, queer, two-spirit community and are interested in developing skills transferable to many professional work environments while supporting others on their coming-out journey.
Some responsibilities of phone line volunteers are:
1) Actively listening to individuals that call the support phone line
2) Answering questions sent via e-mail
3) Updating resources and referral services
Phone line volunteers are asked to commit to approximately 14 hours per month (four 3-hour shifts plus one 2-hour Volunteer meeting) for a minimum of two academic semesters. -
