Applications are now open for the final volunteer intake for the South African Depression and Anxiety Group (SADAG). SADAG is looking for compassionate, dedicated individuals who would like to volunteer their time and become part of our Telephone Counselling Volunteer Team. This is the final intake of volunteers who will receive training for 2026.
Stationed across Mzansi
Volunteers can join our Call Centre teams in:
Johannesburg
Durban
Cape Town
SADAG said their last volunteer training intake for 2026 starts on 19 October, so if you’ve been thinking about volunteering, this is the time to apply.
Who should apply
This opportunity is a great fit for psychology students considering their Honours or a Master’s in 2027. Starting your volunteer journey now can be a valuable opportunity to gain practical experience in telephone counselling, strengthen your listening and counselling skills, and become part of a team making a meaningful difference in people’s lives.
Reference letters for volunteers
SADAG’s criteria for providing a reference letter is that volunteers need to be working on a permanent shift for between 6 and 12 months. Starting your training with this October intake gives you the opportunity to begin building that experience before applications for further studies next year.
The next volunteer training intake will only take place at the beginning of 2027, so don’t wait!
When and how to apply
Training starts: 19 October 2026
