Volunteer

NEDIC offers unpaid placements to students from a variety of college and university programs. Placements are often filled in:

• May/June for a September start
• October/November for a January start
• February/March for a May start
  
  
  

Human services placement students may come from programs such as: 

• Social Work
• Addictions & Mental Health
• Psychology
• Counselling
• Public Health
• Health Promotion

Note: We do not meet the requirements for most graduate-level placements in social work, counselling, or psychology that require face-to-face direct client contact, as our telephone helpline and live chat services are support-oriented instead of providing one-on-one therapy. If you are interested in working in the eating disorders field, browse our service provider directory to get the contact information of other potential options!

To apply for a placement position with NEDIC, please send your resume and a cover letter. In your cover letter, please tell us why you would like to do a placement at NEDIC. Let us know what your program requires, including hours, days, length of placement and learning objectives. Send your application to Suzanne Phillips, Program Manager, by e-mail (nedic@uhn.ca).
