Crisis Help Line Volunteer--Provide crisis intervention and referrals to people who have experienced rape, physical, emotional, verbal, and/or sexual abuse. Volunteers provide emotional support and crisis intervention to those who call the Crisis Helpline. Referrals are often given to assist callers with needs such as emergency shelter, legal assistance, food, and/or individual therapy or support groups. Volunteers answer the line from their own homes and work (6-12 hours) a month. Local residents of the St. Louis, MO metro-region preferred.
Volunteers work 3 hour shifts. Primary need is Weekends and Holidays, between 8AM and midnight. Please visit our website for more information about Safe Connections or to apply, www.safeconnections.org.
