Interested in Volunteering at the Association for Women in Psychology Conference in San Diego?

The conference committee in San Diego is in need of volunteers for both on-site and advanced help for the conference. Duties vary, but will include helping with on-site registration, collecting information for pre-conference attendees’ continuing education credit, staffing the souvenir table, and providing overall conference support. Volunteering is a great way to be a part of the event, connect with others at the conference and support AWP. Volunteers help for a minimum of 4 hours either before or during the conference. Those who do volunteer for 4 hours or more are eligible for a number of benefits:

  1. Out-of-Town Students and Early Career Professionals who volunteer at the conference will receive discounted rooms at the conference hotel ($20 per night for four volunteers per room that has 2 queen beds OR $50 per night for two volunteers per room that has 2 queen beds). This is significant savings since the AWP rate at the Hilton is $140-$155/night!

    Please Note: All volunteer rate rooms are arranged by the conference committee. No reduced rates will be available for rooms booked directly with the hotel.



  2. Local Area Student Volunteers who do not want conference hotel rooms will receive free Conference Registration (but must join AWP or renew their membership for $15 or more if able) and a free ticket to our Saturday evening dance.


  3. Local Area Individuals who are not students who do not want hotel rooms who volunteer at the conference will receive Conference Registration at the Limited Means Rate and a free ticket to our Saturday evening dance.

Interested individuals should fill out a volunteer interest form by clicking here.

For more information on volunteer opportunties please contact Theodore and Lindsey by emailing volunteer@awpsd.org.

Email Abby Gondek if you are interested in volunteering to help with the Feminist Shabbat.
