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.
