Children and youth living in CPAF’s shelters are in need of homework help, support to develop healthy habits, and encouragement of their academic progress in a time of significant transition and change. Are you interested in learning how to support and mentor children and youth who have experienced trauma? Consider volunteering at CPAF! CPAF invites you to apply to volunteer as a tutor or mentor with school-age children/youth living with their families in shelter. Volunteers build relationships and work directly with individual children/youth on a weekly basis for the duration of their stay at shelter.

Requirements: LiveScan Background check; TB test; volunteer application and interview; completion of CPAF’s 65-hour Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Advocate Training. *Males strongly encouraged to apply.
