As the world leader in volunteerism we feel a responsibility to unite our broader community, and to use this moment to become stronger.
See below to participate in our Impact Sector survey, access our COVID-19 Resource Hub, and explore our growing directory of COVID-19-specific and virtual volunteering opportunities.
Volunteers for our program become certified mediators, through a process of attending training and hands on experience. In exchange for free training volunteers must agree to donate at least 10 hours per year of their time and talent.
The next Training for volunteers will be February 27-28.
Our program covers the following counties in SW Oklahoma: Beckham, Caddo, Comanche, Cotton, Greer, Jackson, Jefferson, Harmon, Kiowa, Stephens, Tillman and Washita. If you live in, or are willing to travel to, any of these counties, and are interested in becoming a volunteer, we encourage you to contact us. Note: volunteers who live more than 10 miles from a training site or mediation site will receive reimbursement for travel expenses.
No additional volunteer opportunities at this time.
