April 11, 2014 · 0 Comments
Caledon OPP is helping Caledon Dufferin Victim Services recruit volunteers.
Volunteering with the agency offers a rewarding opportunity and one that some say is life changing. Victim Services volunteers are positioned to provide significant, meaningful assistance, often at the time of greatest need.
Crisis responder volunteers provide direct services to victims of crime and trauma. Extensive training is provided to successful candidates. Upon completion of their training, they will choose their availability from a flexible schedule.
The basic eligibility requirements for those interested in volunteering include:
• Passing an extensive background check and security clearance;
• Superior interpersonal and communication skills;
• Valid Ontario driver’s licence;
• Able to consistently contribute a minimum of three 12-hour shifts per month;
• Attend monthly meetings and training.
Those who are interested are asked to visit the website at www.cdvs.ca to access the application form, or call 905-951-3838.
Application deadline is April 16.
