We've had many professional providers volunteer their time with us and they've all done great work for our clients.
Volunteer hours for chiropractors are from 7-9 PM every Tuesday and around 4 clients are helped per night. Scheduling can be flexible, but service providers typically come every other week to once a week.
Please feel free to email gcc@suitcaseclinic.orgif you have any questions.

Massage Therapist
Description: The Suitcase Clinic in Berkeley is looking for an additional massage therapist who can volunteer their services once per week. Our organization is a student run community space for homeless and underserved populations in Berkeley. We have provided healthcare and social services for between 40 to 60 clients every Tuesday night at the First Presbyterian church for over 20 years. It is incredible what a 20 minute massage has done to improve the disposition of our clients, who often live with a variety of mental and physical stresses.
We operate from 6:15-9:00 PM Tuesdays year-round, with a short closure in the summer and winter. Our weekly clinics have started up again and will continue throughout the school year, pausing mid-December to mid-January. It is our hope we can find one more massage therapist to volunteer weekly throughout this timeframe. Our massage therapists usually see 4-6 clients per evening for 20 minute long sessions, with two therapists sharing one room. However, we can certainly work together to create your own unique role within the organization.
Please reach out to us, even if you would just like to learn more about what we do and how you can contribute! Please reach out to us at generalcliniccoords@gmail.com.
When: Tuesdays 7-9 pm
