We are looking for more volunteers to help with the Crisis Advocates at our Domestic Violence Shelter.

Volunteers help with answering the crisis line, taking and redirecting calls, assisting clients in shelter, etc.

Days and hours are flexible, but we do ask that volunteers work with us in 4 hour shifts.

A good sense of confidentiality is a MUST!
