Are you looking for a way to contribute to your community and promote healthy sexuality? Planned Parenthood Toronto’s volunteer opportunities can offer you just that. Volunteers at PPT play an active and key role to contributing to the well-being of our clients, partners, and the communities we serve. Volunteers also increase their skills, meet new people, and make new connections in the community. We offer peer education opportunities in our sexual and reproductive health programs, and our anti-homophobia project, T.E.A.C.H., as well as opportunities to volunteer for specific projects such as fundraising and special events.
