Volunteers are asked to pledge at least 8 hours per month for a period of at least one year following graduation. Some of our volunteers have been answering calls for many years.

Learn basic counseling techniques and about available community services. This is an excellent volunteer opportunity for persons with compassion and the ability to keep confidences.
