Duke Center for Integrative Medicine

DCIM volunteers will have the opportunity to participate in a variety of supporting roles throughout our center. These roles can include activities that support patients and/or administrative and clinical staff. The primary goal of our center is to maximize each individual’s ability to experience optimal vitality and peak wellness, whatever their current health condition. We believe that there is a powerful interrelationship between the mind, body, spirit and community in the establishment of both health and disease. We value our volunteers involvement in the center and believe they are an important part of our team!
