Clinic
Adult Volunteers
Kaiser Permanente values the commitment our community shows through our volunteers. We appreciate the adults who are either giving of their time because they have completed their professional careers or are looking for something meaningful to do with time they have open. Some may just be looking for a moment of calm in their so busy schedule! Volunteers make connections every day in our clinics and provide the opportunity to serve others needs. Your life experiences make these connections important and relevant to our members. We need individuals who are caring and compassionate, who can show empathy and be helpful.
