Disclosure

Volunteering as a Crisis Supporter is both challenging and extremely rewarding. The Crisis Supporter Workplace Training course can also be challenging and not all people are suited to the role of Crisis Supporter.
As an organisation experienced in the provision of mental health services and support, we are committed to safeguarding our volunteers’ welfare through a range of proactive measures. We may request additional documents for some medical conditions.
In return, we ask that all volunteers who participate in this vital service recognise and honour the commitment they are making, which includes:

• Participation on a fair and reasonable basis, in afterhours shifts (i.e. after 5pm and on weekends). This is vital to enabling Lifeline Australia to provide 24-hour Crisis Support services nationally.
• During Phase 1 of the training course, you must successfully complete all E-Learning modules and must attend weekly training sessions as specified in the Training Calendar.
• Following successful completion of Phase 2, you must:
- Fulfil 12 on phone hours a month at a minimum
- Attend and participate in Reflective Practice Supervision and Professional Development activities
- Submit to annual Police Record Checks as required by Lifeline Albury Wodonga.

By submitting this application you agree to uphold our expectations so far as is reasonably practical. Nothing in this application constitutes an employment agreement and you consent to donating your time and services to Lifeline Australia as a willing and consenting volunteer.
