We rely on volunteers to achieve our mission.

YMP is entirely volunteer driven. Get in touch with our team to learn more about the current opportunities for joining our global Mandala of volunteers serving around the world.

Our current volunteer needs include:

  • Communications Officer: to oversee the YMP communication on LinkedIn and other social media platforms, to keep our community up to date on events & offerings, engage with the YMP Mighty Networks Community, etc.

  • Development Officer: to support our team’s efforts to formally register, create internal systems, etc.

    • These volunteer positions require an average of 5 hours per week.

  • Resource Channel Team: we are recruiting 2-3 additional volunteers to join our Resource Channel Team. Together we are creating a free resource channel for refugees with a variety of trauma-informed embodied practices as well as a community platform for humanitarians and facilitators.

    • Various opportunities and levels of commitment available.

  • We welcome your ideas for roles and collaboration - don’t hesitate to reach out!

We are always looking for help with:

  • Teaching virtual trauma-informed yoga or dance classes with those impacted by war and violence internationally. We have a need for English and Arabic but other languages also welcome.

  • Social media volunteer team (various opportunities and levels of commitment).

  • Creating trauma-informed recorded content to be shared on our resource channel for refugees (various languages needed). 

  • Bloggers: to write posts on a topic in the trauma-informed yoga context, or about your experiences sharing yoga within marginalized communities. (ex. accessibility in the yoga community, mindfulness as a tool for self-care, cultural appropriation, etc.). We welcome your thoughts and ideas as a one time offering or a long-term volunteer opportunity.

  • Various opportunities for volunteers with design experience available.

Many people ask how they can get involved with YMP fundraising and awareness, so we are currently building a section for this. In the meantime, the best way to support YMP is through donations or by sharing the project with your network.
