Would you recommend CornerHouse?
Corner House is a welcoming and meaningful place to volunteer for. Their staff not only care and have passion for their job but also they make sure that your time is well spend.
Corner House mission and services are worth the time one volunteer. I definitely recommend it as a place for volunteering.
I recently moved to Minneapolis and I have been volunteering since September 2014 at CornerHouse. The people are really nice. I feel welcome and the environment is really good. The supervisor is very helpful and teaches you how to do the tasks. I recommend CornerHouse because it is a great place to volunteer!
I started volunteering with CornerHouse at the beginning of October 2014 as an Administrative Volunteer. I have never felt more welcome at an organization, and I thoroughly felt my work there was well appreciated. There was not a single day I volunteered where I was not thanked as I walked out the door for my contributions. Not only does CornerHouse sincerely appreciate their employees and volunteers, they also go above and beyond to give vulnerable children and adults a second chance at the life they deserve.
I began volunteering here in October, 2014 as a Family Services Mentee to Abbie Bolkcom-Smith, the Family Services Director. I had interviewed dozens of professionals in the non-profit/social work field, and as a high school student I was very interested in learning more about CornerHouse. I've help with research in presentations, child care before/during/after Forensic Interviews, and child care during Support Groups. CornerHouse is a CAC that is always evolving to better fit community's needs of an Child Advocacy Center. Everyone here is friendly, flexible, approachable, and more than willing to share their knowledge and lend an ear, even to a high school student like myself. I will be here until the end of May, 2015.
I have a personal interest in children that have been sexually abused and I'm thrilled to know that there is a place for these little ones to get help and begin the long, horrible process of healing, if possible.
It lifts my soul to be a positive person in a childs life, if even for an hour!
