Nurture

First Step is looking for two kind and caring volunteers per shift to provide the nurturing for our Residental and Non-residential groups, and for our residential children.

This allows our clients to attend groups and receive services apart from their children and allows them to focus on themselves and find a path towards healing. This opportunity is only available for volunteers who have completed our First Step Core training and passed our background and Department of Health and Human Services background checks.

To find out more about the requirements for training please visit our website: www.firststep-mi.org/volunteer

What you can expect:

  • A small number of children: less than 8 per nurturer,
  • No bathroom or diaper duties,
  • Parents do not leave the property and are nearby for when they are needed.

Mission Statement

The mission of First Step is to eliminate both domestic and sexual violence and provide comprehensive services to individuals and families impacted by these crimes.

Description

First Step works to reduce the incidence of domestic and sexual violence and to provide services to individuals affected by these crimes. Prevention of domestic and sexual violence through education, advocacy and appropriate intervention is the ultimate goal of First Step.

The work of First Step is based on the belief that domestic and sexual violence are damaging to those individuals directly involved and to society as a whole. It is criminal conduct which cannot be tolerated. All individuals shall be provided safety and must be treated with dignity and respect. Support shall focus on self-determination and empowerment. Diversity shall also be honored. Interventions that blame the survivor and do not hold the offender accountable for the battering and rape are ineffective and inappropriate.
