Volunteering Opportunities

Student Volunteers

Students who volunteer in the LCHFC will be providing service to and interacting with the community. Therefore, they are required to attend an informational meeting and submit required clearances.

It is our intention to provide compassionate and high quality care to those we serve, and to maintain a safe and healthy environment for those who provide service. With that in mind, the following is required for all students to volunteer in the LCHFC:

  1. Review the CFPB Summary of Rights document. Sign the Acknowledgement and Authorization for Background Checks. Provide to the Leahy Community Health and Family Center. You must understand your rights prior to submitting for Federal and State Clearances. 

  2. A Pennsylvania State Police Criminal Background Check (every 5 years)

  3. Pennsylvania Child Abuse Clearance (every 5 years)

  4. For out-of-state residents and international students: an FBI Criminal Background Check

  5. Proof of completed immunizations, including an annual flu vaccine, and evidence of a tuberculin skin test (PPD or Mantoux) within the past year.

  6. Acknowledgement of Confidentiality in accordance with the Health Insurance Portability Accountability Act (HIPAA) 

Documentation is the responsibility of the student and must be submitted in advance of volunteering.

NOTE: If you are doing a clinical rotation, internship, or residency, submit all paperwork to the academic department.
All other student volunteers should submit paperwork to the LCHFC.
