Cultural Worker/ Knowledge Keeper - a First Nations, Métis, Inuit and/or Two-Spirit person who will support our Two-Spirit youth, talk to any youth as needed and lead an activity at camp and an info-session at training.

 

Photographer/Videographer – photograph the training and camp and create a slide show for the Community Supper, post photos online after camp.

​

Social worker/therapist/psychologist – lead and facilitate a support group for caregivers and parents

​

Please note:

- Volunteers must be over the age of 18 at the start of camp.

- CITS must be over the age of 15 at the start of camp.

- Volunteers will be required to get a criminal record and vulnerable persons check paid for by Camp Dragonfly.

- Returning volunteers must reapply each year and are not guaranteed a spot.

- Volunteers may stay in the same role for 3 years at which point they will 'retire' and become alumni or apply in a different role. This helps give lots of folks a chance to experience Dragonfly and builds in knowledge succession between volunteers. Exceptions may be made for difficult-to-fill roles. 

- Camp prioritizes trans and gender queer volunteers.
