Children's Program Volunteer

Children's Program Volunteers spend time with children residing in our Domestic Violence Safe House located in Arlington, VA. Volunteers play games, help with homework, and otherwise engage in healthy & fun activities. The goal is for the kids to take their minds off their trauma and provide parents the opportunity to relax or attend meetings on-site. Shifts are typically Mondays and Wednesday evenings, 1.5 hours each. The shelter is a secure location, about a 10-minute walk from orange/silver lines. Interested?
