Cal Voices Employment Application

Thanks for your interest in working at Cal Voices!

Founded in 1946, Cal Voices is the oldest peer-run mental health advocacy agency in California. We are a 501(c)(3) public benefit organization dedicated to improving the lives of residents in the diverse communities of California through advocacy, education, research, and culturally relevant peer support services. In all its programs, Cal Voices works with individuals and families with mental health challenges to promote wellness and recovery, prevention, and improved access to services and supports in California's public mental health system.

As a peer-run organization funded primarily through California's Mental Health Services Act, over 90% of our employees and more than 50% of our Board of Directors have personal lived experience of recovery from a mental health challenge or identify as a close family member, caregiver, or direct supporter of a loved one with a mental, emotional, or behavioral health challenge. Our 70+ employees and 100+ volunteers work in 15 state and local peer programs throughout California. To learn more about our agency and programs, visit:
