Volunteer Job Duties
Childcare Volunteer
The childcare advocate category is divided into two subcategories from which you can choose from, or be in both:
Childcare
Childcare is needed on Monday, 6:30-8:00p for Art Therapy, Thursday 6:30- 8:00p during the
Life Skills classes, and/or just being on the list to call for unannounced childcare as the need arises.
Children's Support Group Assistants
The children's support group assistant will not only include helping the staff with the children during group, but will
include the responsibility of taking over group if the advocate has to take a call or has some other emergency. It will not
involve you to make a lesson plan, just be available to handle the children if an emergency arises.
Jewelery Project Team
The jewelery project team will assist staff and residents with the fundraising craft project. There are many jobs you can do
to help including production of the jewelery and packaging. The hours are flexible for this category.
Shelter office volunteer
The shelter office volunteer category has been divided into two subcategories:
Sunday lunches
The Sunday lunches provide our weekend advocate with an hour and a half break. You would have to train on the hotline with
staff present before you can be a Sunday lunch volunteer.
Office Aid
An office aid would basically spend time at the shelter office, helping the staff with filing, making copies, etc. The
hours are flexible for this subcategory.
Sexual Assault Volunteer
The sexual assault volunteer carries a pager for a week at a time and is on call for sexual assault calls in the county.
