Full-time

NOAF is unapologetic in its goal to support abortion as health care. Abortion is front and center in its name and in its work. Its organizational culture is mission driven. They are known for bold, clear communication and for being spirited, thoughtful and insightful. Perhaps NOAF’s most significant asset is its human resources. While NOAF has a relatively small paid staff its work is accomplished by a strong and committed volunteer base. NOAF has more than 300 volunteers, many who have volunteered with NOAF for years. All share a commitment to NOAF’s mission and those served by NOAF. They are united by a common belief in women’s bodily autonomy and reproductive freedom. Most importantly, its volunteers know that they are having an impact on people’s lives.

NOAF client service volunteers staff its “cold line,” responding to requests for financial assistance five days a week. NOAF escort volunteers are trained to provide escort support and are present when the abortion clinic is open. NOAF’s escorts provide support to those who are entering a clinic to receive an abortion. Its mission is to provide a safe walk, as a volunteer has said: “our eyes, ears and bodies are for the women walking into the clinic”.  NOAF has been and needs to continue to be a loud, visible and effective voice in support of safe, legal and accessible abortion healthcare.
