Volunteer Opportunity Details:

Survivors of domestic abuse need support after they move out of Anna Marie's shelter. Starting over can be hard, especially without the help of someone who cares. By volunteering as an After-Care Advocate, women can be there for survivors of domestic abuse seeking a fresh start at healthy, nonviolent lives. By meeting with women once a week, whenever you both are available, you will help women find empowerment and self-sufficiency, and work to end the cycle of domestic abuse.
