This position is a crucial part of our Program, as the volunteers help to provide a safe, loving home environment for our women who, for the most part, have never had this experience.
The female volunteer lives with our women in mutuality, as a roommate, but within a separate and self-contained living area. The volunteer lives rent-free, abiding by the same housing guidelines our Participants do, including curfews and pre-planning for evenings away from home.
This is a wonderful opportunity for someone to love and mentor young women. The volunteer works closely with the Participant's key workers [SAS staff], and a 24 hour pager will provide instant human contact any time of the day to help deal with issues, questions or emergencies.
