Who We Are

Shatterproof Volunteerism Purpose Statement

We believe in the power of people to change the course of addiction in the US.  

Volunteerism at Shatterproof is more than service – it's a movement.  

It’s how we honor lived experiences, build connection, and inspire hope.   

We rally passionate people – those with lived expertise and those who care deeply – to drive change, end stigma, support recovery, and save lives.  

Volunteerism is the heartbeat of Shatterproof – loud, visible, and impossible to ignore.

What We Do

Volunteer Ecosystem

We’re currently building a volunteer ecosystem that meets you where you are.​ ​

We’ve created three tiers of engagement - Mobilizers, Connectors, and Ambassadors - to reflect the different ways you can plug into Shatterproof’s mission.​ ​

Since this work is for YOU, we believe in keeping you in the loop of our plan so you can see where volunteerism at Shatterproof is headed. Feel free to dive in below!
