Volunteer

There are many opportunities to volunteer at TMI whether someone is interested in an internship, meeting a community service learning requirement for a local school, or simply contributing to our mission by offering time and service at our agency.

Internships and Community Service Learning

We currently have master's level interns from the School of Social Work at San Diego State University, and are open to students from other schools and other programs. Internships are oriented toward the needs and requirements of the students, so if an internship at TMI can fulfill these, we are open to considering taking on the student. For more information, contact Executive Director Kirby Wohlander at (858) 467-0600 ext 304.
