Volunteer
More than 80 volunteers contribute valuable service on the crisis
line, on special events committees, and as members of the Board
of Directors. They come from all walks of life and from neighborhoods
all across our community: students, teachers, business people, and
retired adults, among others.
Training for crisis line volunteers is held each summer, fall and
winter. New volunteers participate in 40 hours of interactive training
designed to increase their knowledge and build their skills to respond
to callers who need information and support.
In 2005, volunteers contributed more than 6,141 hours - valued at
$105,964 - of service to clients. The dedication of our volunteers
makes possible Safe Connection's positive impact on the community.
