Volunteer Role with Stipend Opportunities
Location: Remote or Field-Based
Hours: Flexible
Most advocacy roles focus on reports, policies, and passing the baton. Not here. At Seniors In Distress, we do not measure success by paperwork—we measure it by the lives we protect and the dignity we restore.
Instead of waiting for permission or instructions, you will take immediate action—listening closely, stepping in boldly, and staying engaged until real change happens. This role is for those who will not turn away from a senior in need and who believe every moment counts when fighting neglect and abuse.
This is not a support role
This is protection
At Seniors In Distress, we do not look for people to just show up—we look for people who will stand up. Seniors across our communities are suffering, overlooked, or mistreated.
A Seniors Advocate is the one who sees what others miss, says what others will not, and acts when no one else does.
We do not need performers
We need protectors
- What will you do when a senior is mistreated
- How far will you go to make it right
- Why is protecting someone more important than being liked
Your mission
- Be Present – Show up for seniors who feel forgotten, unheard, or unsafe
- Listen for What Is Not Said – Hear between the words to catch signs of mistreatment, hesitation, or fear that others might miss
- Act With Urgency – Make the first move, the follow-up call, the documented report—before harm gets worse
- Support With Purpose – Offer resources, next steps, and emotional guidance that truly meet seniors' needs
- Speak Truth to Power – Raise red flags, challenge the silence, and advocate relentlessly even when it is uncomfortable
- Follow Through – Stay connected until seniors receive the care and protection they deserve—no matter how long it takes
Who should apply
This is not a role for the passive or polite. This is for someone who sees a senior being mistreated and refuses to look away—someone who believes that no elder should suffer in silence, and who is ready to speak boldly, act with urgency, and protect relentlessly, no matter who is watching.
If that is you, skip the formalities. Instead, tell us:
✅ What injustice you are no longer willing to ignore
✅ How you will stand up for seniors facing mistreatment
✅ Why advocacy feels personal to you
This is not a career path—it is a calling.
If you are ready to protect, we are ready to stand with you.
