Hello! Thank you for your interest in volunteering at the Rose Andom Center! Community interest and involvement like yours is what makes the work we do possible.
Current Opportunities
Volunteer as a Hope Coach for our Youth Pathways Program!
The Rose Andom Center’s Pathways program is for youth ages 7 – 16 who have been impacted by violence. Hope Coaches are mentors for participants in the program and volunteer 3 – 4 hours each month at regular pathways events. This is a group mentoring program, with each Pathways event offering a different, engaging activity for the group. Pathways events may involve touring a local museum, creating an art project, picnics & games in the park, participating in a soccer clinic, etc. Pathways events typically occur on a Saturday afternoon or evening during the week.
The mission of Camp Hope & Pathways is to create pathways of hope and healing for youth exposed to violence through positive social interactions with healthy adult mentors and fun activities. Pathways and Camp Hope America-Colorado involves year-round community building activities as well as a one-week sleep-away summer camp. Hope Coaches are crucial to the functioning of this program as the key is to connect trauma-exposed youth with healthy adult role models. We are looking for Hope Coaches to commit to 1 year at a time with the expectation that they will attend at least 5 events throughout the year (this is outside of the week at Camp Hope). Consistency is incredibly important for youth exposed to trauma so please only commit to this position if that is something that is realistic for your schedule.

Survivors:
Survivors and secondary survivors of domestic violence make amazing volunteers. We are grateful to survivors and former clients who want to give back and help us provide an environment where survivors can thrive. Because volunteering at the Rose Andom Center can involve speaking with victims in crisis and hearing disclosures of violent assault and relationship abuse, we encourage you to consider if volunteering in this capacity is right for you at this point in your healing journey. Rose Andom Center clients are asked to wait at least one year beyond the crisis which initially lead them to seek services before beginning as a volunteer.
