Volunteer At TIHAN

TIHAN loves our volunteers!

We utilize volunteer resources, multiplying the our impact.  In addition to helping us serve more people, it also involves more people in HIV awareness and advocacy.

We Couldn't Do It Without You!

With the largest team of volunteers providing direct care and support to people living with HIV in Southern Arizona, TIHAN’s programs thrive because of you, our amazing volunteers!

Many Ways to Volunteer At TIHAN

TIHAN has opportunities for dedicated, compassionate volunteers to join our team. If you are interested in volunteering with TIHAN, take a moment to look at our current volunteer opportunities. If there is a role that you are interested in, please email us at VolunteerCoordinator@tihan.org or call us at 299-6647 ext 206 and we’ll set up a time to meet, either in person or by phone, so we can learn more about you and also provide you with the details regarding TIHAN’s onboarding process. We’ll send you the Volunteer Application and get you signed up for the next volunteer orientation. There is also a simple online background check that needs to be initiated. Once you complete these steps, you are well on your way to becoming a TIHAN volunteer!

Decorate Care Packages

TIHAN offers care packages to people living with HIV/AIDS. These bags are filled with toiletry items (paper towels, toilet tissue, shampoo, conditioner etc.). In addition to needing these toiletry items, we also need help decorating the bags so they feel more like a gift than a handout.

If you would like to help us decorate Trader Joe’s bags and turn them into care packages, please contact us at VolunteerCoordinator@tihan.org or 520-299-6647 ext. 206.

You can do this at home and bring the bags to TIHAN’s office at 2660 N. 1st Ave. (just south of Glenn)·

Become a Faith Community Liaison

Each congregation has an individual member of that congregation who serves as liaison between the congregation and TIHAN. If your congregation does not have a liaison and you are interested in serving in that capacity, please let us know.

Care & Support Training Online Modules

Thank you for your interest in completing TIHAN’s Care and Support Training so that you can volunteer in support of those living with HIV/AIDS. We appreciate your continued dedication to the well-being and safety of our CarePartners.

There are two components of this online training available to you:

  • Psychosocial Issues and HIV Presentation – required
  • HIV 201 Jeopardy Game – optional

Both include a presentation to view and a quiz to submit.

If you choose to view the Jeopardy Game, you will need Microsoft PowerPoint. If you do not have PowerPoint, click here to install the free PowerPoint (2007) Viewer.

On the last slide of each presentation, you will need to click on the link to the quiz. Please plan to complete your quiz in a one-time sitting, as you cannot save the quiz and continue to work on it at a later time.

When you are satisfied with your answers on the quiz, click the “submit” button at the bottom of the page. Once you click “submit,” you cannot go back to change your answers. Your answers will be automatically sent to TIHAN.

If you have any questions during this process, please contact TIHAN’s Program Manager at ProgramManager@tihan.org or 299-6647 Ext. 203.
