Join the White Cloud Tele-Mental Health team

White Cloud Foundation is currently looking for volunteers to assist with delivering its Tele-Mental Health Service – a free service to treat and support people living with, or at risk of developing, depression and/or anxiety. 

We need accredited Psychologists, Social Workers, Dietitians, Exercise Physiologists, and other Allied Health clinicians with experience, as well as qualified Counsellors and general admin people to answer the phones.  You can live anywhere in Australia, you just need a computer and a good internet connection. 

Whether you can provide just one four hour block a month or one full day a week, we will work with you to develop a suitable roster.  This is truly a great opportunity to make a difference and help people who are living with or at risk of developing depression.  To register your interest in volunteering, please click here to fill out a form.  We will then contact you to discuss further.

As White Cloud Foundation is a Child Safe organisation, we also prefer volunteers to have a Blue Card or the Blue Card equivalent for those living outside Queensland. If you are a Queensland resident and don’t currently have a Blue Card, you can apply for one by clicking here. It only takes a couple of minutes, and as you are volunteering, you can tick the Volunteer category and there is no fee.
