Volunteering
gives you the opportunity to meet new people, to learn new skills, to
gain valuable job experience, but most important of all a chance to
make a difference in your community. You can volunteer to help in the
administration of our office. You can receive specialized training to
help victims of crime. You can work on doing research and help to
design seminars for presentation to various segments of the community.
You can get out in the community on a bike and help find stolen cars or
you can learn about the rich history of Chinatown and be an ambassador,
assisting and giving information to tourists. These are just a few
examples of the type of things our volunteers do.
All
volunteers share the common goal of wanting to make a difference in
their community. Many of our volunteers say that they get out of the
program much more than they feel they've put in. it's a great
experience.
