    Volunteers will represent VSC at community events, resource fairs, and outreach opportunities, as well as help distribute agency materials to local businesses, organizations, and community partners. This role is ideal for individuals who are passionate about community engagement, advocacy, and connecting individuals impacted by crime to supportive resources.

This training is designed to equip volunteers with the knowledge and confidence needed to successfully fulfill their role.

    A $30 training fee is required for each participant.
