Jesuit Volunteer Corps Northwest
Jesuit Volunteers (JVs) are invited to engage in one or more years of full-time service with local organizations throughout the Pacific Northwest. JVs serve alongside and accompany communities, while reflecting on social structures and cultures that contribute to inequity, in order to co-create a more just and equitable world. Jesuit Volunteers live together in community, serving in both urban and rural locales across Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, and Washington. Wide variety among more than 100+ available roles each service year. Apply early for the most roles to be available. Local support provides a sense of community that starts with other JVs and extends into the local community. Further help on this page can be found by clicking here.
