Be a supportive person for a survivor group!
Support Group Volunteer Facilitator :
Co-facilitators assist the staff facilitator and help create a supportive environment while providing advocacy and education for survivors who have experienced sexual assault or domestic violence. SafeHouse provides both drop-in and closed curriculum-based groups. No previous group facilitation experience is required. Volunteers are required to be available for 2 hours for their assigned support group. Support Groups are based on need and availability.

We do provide crisis intervention training and it's mandatory to attend before volunteering with survivors can begin. In addition, we require on-the-job training and a six-month commitment.

All direct service volunteers must attend our CORE and program-specific training. For dates check out https://www.safehousecenter.org/volunteer-program-training-details/

Applications are open until Wednesday, May 1st. Apply here -https://bttr.im/la9yy

We highly encourage all applicants to attend a volunteer information session to learn more about the services, and requirements and to go over the roles available. https://www.safehousecenter.org/volunteer-info-sessions/

If you have questions, please contact our Volunteer and Intern Program Coordinator at (734) 973-0242 x 297 or e-mail us at volunteer@safehousecenter.org.
