Rosehedge/Multifaith Works CareTeams offer people of all faiths a common volunteer experience by providing practical support and friendship to people living with HIV/AIDS and those in recovery. Both volunteers and CarePartners (clients) report tremendous benefits through their involvement on CareTeams.

The CareTeam Program is pleased to show you our video!

We offer our deepest thanks to all who participated in making it happen.

Special thanks to Phillip Nelson and his crew from Seattle Film Institute who volunteered their time

and effort in the production of this gift for us.

The Need


Although many people living with HIV/AIDS have benefited from new medical treatments, others continue to live with debilitating side effects from potent medications, along with isolation and fear. As part of our compassionate response, Rosehedge/Multifaith Works recruits and trains volunteers for CareTeams.

What is a CareTeam?

A CareTeam is a group of 4 - 7 volunteers who provide practical, emotional, and spiritual support to a person or household affected by HIV/AIDS and/or chemical addiction. Volunteers come to the program as individuals or might be based out of civic groups, academic institutions, spiritual communities, or the community at large. Our volunteers range in age from 18 to 85 and represent diverse cultural backgrounds, belief systems, and life experiences.

Working as a team, each volunteer can make a difference in the life of a person with HIV/AIDS although her/his individual time commitment may be limited. Together we accomplish more collectively than any of us would working on our own.
