  • 32 people are interested

Hotline Volunteers assist clients who call the WCA 24-Hour Hotline with crisis intervention, community resources and safety planning related to domestic violence, sexual assault (DVSA), and stalking. Our hotline is essential to providing DVSA survivors with the resources and support needed to take the next steps towards staying safe and growing strong.

Volunteers will sign up for 4 hour shifts during which time their personal phone will be connected to our hotline. They must be available to answer calls during that time, and assist clients with safety plans and providing resources.

Volunteers will need to complete 8 hours of training before they can start, and 40 hours within the first year of volunteering.

Any language skills are greatly appreciated, but if you only speak English, that's okay too!
