How long does a placement last?

Volunteers commit to positions for periods of either three or six months.

At quarterly evaluation meetings with the volunteering coordinator, the volunteer evaluates his/her performance and satisfaction in the position. Together they decide whether whether to continue on for another period and for how long.

We are gratified that many volunteers that are a good fit for the team choose to stay on for a year or even longer, either in the same position (which helps to provide continuity) or shifting periodically to new positions in order to gain experience with more aspects of operating Kabissa while helping to onboard and mentor new volunteers entering positions they have left.
