PRN Volunteer Programme

Volunteer

PRN's privacy-first volunteer programme connects approved investigators, researchers, and support members with cases and teams — through a secure, reviewed, and structured process.

Programme in preparation

No approved volunteers are currently listed

Profiles appear in this directory only after review and approval by the PRN team. This directory will populate once the first approved volunteers complete the programme onboarding process.

Awaiting first profiles

Need to report unusual activity?

Public visitors cannot message volunteers directly. If you have experienced unusual activity or want to submit a case report, use the PRN intake route below. Volunteers are matched to cases through the PRN team — not through direct public contact.

Submit via Is It Paranormal?

Programme Features

How the volunteer system will work

Reviewed Profiles Only

Every volunteer profile is reviewed and approved by the PRN team before appearing in this directory. No profile is auto-approved.

Privacy-Safe Visibility

Volunteers control their own visibility settings. Private contact details, exact location, and personal information are never publicly displayed.

Subscriber-Only Contact

Direct messaging and support requests are available to PRN subscribers only. Public visitors are directed to the intake reporting route.

Secure Inbox Workflow

All contact flows through the PRN secure inbox and notification system. Volunteer contact details are never shared directly with requesters.

Availability Controls

Volunteers set their own availability status — Active, Limited, Paused, or Unavailable. Support requests are gated accordingly.

Structured Support Requests

Subscribers can submit structured support requests with case details, urgency, and type — ensuring volunteers receive clear, actionable briefs.

The above describes the planned volunteer system. These features are being prepared and will become available as the programme launches.
