Educational Researchers / Content Developers

The Mental Health Society of Greater Victoria is seeking volunteers for our education team! As an organization, our mission is to improve mental health in Victoria by contributing to relevant education and improving access to local support services. 

We are a 100% volunteer-run organization that adapts to our volunteers' availability. Most tasks are performed remotely. However, we host biweekly online meetings for the education team and quarterly online meetings for our entire organization. The schedule for these meetings will be decided according to the volunteers’ availability. On top of meetings, volunteers are expected to work remotely to complete their assigned tasks by an assigned deadline.

As part of our education team, you will work with our Education Team Lead to research and develop content for our app, social media, as well as other media options (such as educational videos) and online workshops about mental health. The workshops will be presented to workplaces, volunteers and the public. We will cater the position to your specific skill set. Great at researching but hate hosting presentations? No problem. Interested in developing videos and creating pamphlets for the workshops? You can be a part of both projects simultaneously! 

Skills for research and content developers: 
- Strong research skills
- Concise and effective writing 
- Empathy & compassion for all
- Passionate about mental health
