VOLUNTEER
Interact cannot meet its demand for services without volunteer help. All volunteers who wish to help by having direct contact with clients much undergo 32 hours of core training in domestic violence, rape/sexual assault, legal topics, client diversity and crisis counseling. However, there are a variety of volunteer opportunities. Some volunteers work in a more administrative role, rather than with the clients. For a list, click here.
