Volunteering with the Resource Center
The Helping Services’ Domestic Abuse Resource Center team is continuously seeking volunteers to assist survivors and our advocate team in a variety of ways. Volunteers have the flexibility to create their own schedules and our team remains flexible in order to meet the volunteers’ needs. We greatly appreciate our volunteers’ time and commitment to the vital work we provide!
The Domestic Abuse Resource Center team covers seven counties that include: Allamakee, Bremer, Chickasaw, Clayton, Fayette, Howard, and Winneshiek. Volunteers work closely with the Volunteer Coordinator to provide unique volunteer opportunities for individuals such as answering the 24/7 Resource line, community outreach, events, supply drives, creating community content, and more.
If volunteering with the Resource Center interests you, we will assist you by completing the mandatory 20-hour online victim counselor training that is provided by the Iowa Coalition Against Domestic Violence (ICADV). To take the first step, please reach out to: bkohlmeyer@helpingservices.org, or call our 24/7 Resource Line at 800-383-2988.
