Volunteers come in all sorts, from staffing events to behind-the-scenes work like website manager. Here are some of the ways SALVI could use your help:

  • Sodalis – a seasoned participant who helps facilitate conversation among other participants during free time and joins various reading groups throughout the week to help promote conversation and assist the repetitrix/repetitor as necessary.
