Volunteer with the Kids’ FIRST Center and be the difference in the life of a child! Volunteering here is a great experience that allows for a lot of personal and professional growth. As a volunteer, you have the opportunity to work hands-on with child victims of abuse and their loved ones, providing advocacy, support, and information. You will also work in cooperation with local law enforcement, child welfare and Assistant District Attorney’s on behalf of child victims and their families. You are an integral and valued part of the team, and we hope you will consider applying to join us. As a part of the District Attorney's office, Kids' FIRST serves victims of child abuse (physical, sexual, and child witnesses of domestic violence). We provide medical examinations and forensic interviewing of child victims, as well as help to ensure their emotional and other needs are met through information and referrals.
There are two ways to get involved: either as a victim advocate or as a childcare volunteer for our Parent Education Group on Monday nights. For victim advocates, we will be planning a 32-hour victim advocate training in the NEAR future. For childcare volunteers, we will plan an 8-hour training as soon as we have enough interested people.
Please contact Erica Shawan at 541-682-3938 for more information or visit our website for an application (lanecounty.org/KidsFIRST).
We hope to hear from you soon!
