Headquarters is staffed 24 hours per day every day so volunteers are crucial to the Center's services. Training is about 10 weeks in length about 8 hours per week.
Training is held every summer, spring and fall.
Volunteers work about 8 hours per week after training ends. Some community volunteers work 4 hours per week. Volunteer counselors answer phones and talk to people who are experiencing difficulty in their lives. Some need information about other sources of help. Some are just lonely and need someone to listen.
