Volunteer
CAF’s community is strong and helps us do amazing work with the limited resources we have. You can join our community by volunteering to help us in our work.
At this time, we are focusing on increasing our capacity to support people from across the country as they navigate more costly and complex barriers to care.
To submit a volunteer application, complete this form. Due to a high volume of applications and limited staff capacity, we are unable to directly onboard every applicant. However, we will send out specific calls for volunteers to applicants from this form based on interests. Thank you so much for your understanding, and for your interest in volunteering with CAF!
For updates on future opportunities, please join our mailing list, and follow us on Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook.

For People Who Have Had Abortions: A Home Here
Join us for A Home Here, our post-abortion Community Circle held monthly. A Home Here is a space for people to feel safe and at home within themselves to speak about their experiences with abortion care. This space is intentionally curated to be inclusive, supportive, and open, without any judgment. We generally meet virtually on the second Tuesday of every month from 7:30-8:45PM. This space is for people of all gender identities who have had abortions. Sign up for our Summer series here.
Note: Due to current staff capacity, we are unable to review new volunteer applications at this time. High case complexity and need post-Dobbs has impacted our ability to train new volunteers. We appreciate your interest and support.
