    New Volunteer Orientation: Downtown Women's Center

    Attend a volunteer orientation with the Downtown Women's Center and learn about the ways you can volunteer!

    The Downtown Women's Center (DWC) works to end homelessness by providing safe housing, and supportive services centered on wellness, employment, and advocacy.

    Volunteers will leave the training with a better understanding of who we are, what we do, and how volunteers play a part in our mission to end homelessness in Los Angeles.

    This 2-part volunteer orientation is required for all new volunteers. The first part of the training is virtual and the second part is in person.

    To get started, fill out an application in our volunteer portal. Once your application is approved, you'll be able to sign up for scheduled New Volunteer Orientations.
