Volunteer

The Association for Applied and Therapeutic Humor exists because of our members, but we function due to our many dedicated volunteers! We invite you to be a part of our dynamic and amazing AATH volunteer team.

If you are interested in volunteering your talent and time, please submit an online Volunteer Application.

AATH would not be the successful organization that it is without the support of our wonderful volunteers.
