SafePlace Volunteer Program

Reach Out, Give Back, Get Involved

SafePlace volunteers are essential in every aspect of our mission to end sexual and domestic violence through safety, healing, prevention and social change.

For volunteers interested in providing direct support and advocacy to adult survivors and children who have experienced abuse, SafePlace offers many opportunities in our Individual Volunteer program.  Volunteers in this program are required to complete our 40-hour Volunteer Training (view a sample agenda).

The SafePlace Ambassador’s Network (SPAN) is our newest volunteer offering.  This highly accessible program is designed for anyone who would like to raise awareness in their neighborhoods, clubs, schools and faith communities.  SPAN members are encouraged to use their creativity and originality to support the change needed in our communities to end sexual and domestic violence through meaningful dialogue and connection.

SafePlace also offers opportunities for professionals and groups to get involved.
