Direct Service with Clients
All volunteers interacting with clients are required to complete the 40-hour training course.
A free, 40-hour training course, offered several times a year, is open to any community member interested in learning about the dynamics of abuse and how to support victims and survivors. Comprehensive in scope, the training empowers volunteers to confidently share their knowledge of advocacy and intervention skills relating to domestic violence, sexual assault, incest, stalking and child abuse. Participants become well versed in the spectrum of community resources available to victims/survivors of abuse. To learn more about volunteering with Community Safety Network, contact:
