Break the Cycle’s volunteers participate in a variety of projects, depending on their interests, skills, and the needs of the organization. Listed below are some of our more popular volunteer opportunities:
Education and outreach
Educate members of the community about domestic violence and the services that Break the Cycle provides. Teach Break the Cycle’s preventive education programs for youth and staff information tables at community events. These opportunities are available to both attorney and non-attorney volunteers, however, only volunteer attorneys may teach presentations that include legal information. Please contact our volunteer coordinator for information on the next education and outreach volunteer training.
“Grunt Work Night”
