First Response Volunteers

Save to Favorites

The First Response Volunteer's primary responsibility is to act as a first contact to individuals who call or walk into Compass Center. The First Response Volunteers offer information and referral advice and provide a welcoming and helpful atmosphere while helping clients access the Center's programs and services. Volunteers assess client needs to determine whether those needs can be met through one of Compass Center’s programs. If not, volunteers refer clients to the appropriate services in the community.

First Response volunteers are also asked to assist staff members with various in-house administrative tasks, as well as tabling at community events and fairs. Volunteers will perform the work covered in the training and commit to a weekly shift of a specified time for a period of at least six months.

Compass Center’s Spring 2014 FRV Training will take place Tuesday, February 11 and Thursday February 13 from 5:30- 9:00.
