Volunteer/internship

Becoming a part of the SafePlace volunteer program requires a commitment, not just of your time, but also of your energy, in the fight to end violence and oppression in our community.  There are a variety of ways in which you can choose to give your time; and, your service does not have to be concurrent.  Once you are accepted into the training class, you will work with the Human Resource Director to find the volunteer position that is best for you.
