OVERVIEW: Good Shepherd Volunteers recruits, educates, and supports full-time volunteers to serve women, adolescents, and children affected by poverty, violence, and neglect in domestic and international placements. Our volunteers live out the four tenets of Social Justice, Simplicity, Spirituality, and Community, and are encouraged to maintain a commitment to these principles for a lifetime. GSV provides each volunteer with housing, health insurance, a monthly living and transportation stipend, scholarship opportunities, and a relocation reimbursement upon completion of the GSV year.
