Volunteer
Volunteers play a vital role in SARA’s mission to educate our community and assist and empower people who have experienced sexual violence.
Community Outreach Volunteers
Community Outreach Volunteers organize and participate in community awareness events and projects. As a Community Outreach Volunteer, you will team up with other people in our community who care about making positive change, and interact with community members at events, while also providing the necessary support for these events and projects to take place.
Participation in a 2-hour virtual volunteer orientation is required. Outreach Volunteers organize, execute, and participate in community awareness events; reach out to community organizations, both local and rural; table specific events; and promote the agency's vision and mission.

Upcoming Outreach Trainings​
Thursday, December 11 @ 6-8pm​
​
You only need to attend one session to be an outreach volunteer. If there is expressed interest in alternative or additional training dates, changes can be made.
Group Volunteers
Group Volunteers usually volunteer on a one-time or yearly basis and assist with a larger project in and around our office/community.
​​
Our capacity to host general requests for group volunteers is limited. Due to the nature of our work most volunteer opportunities require extensive training. Throughout the year, there are occasions when group support can be utilized for flyering in the community, support at events benefiting SARA, and organization of supplies in our storage space. As needs arise for in-person support, we will reach out to groups that have expressed interest via the Group Volunteer Interest Form linked below.
​
If you have ideas on specific projects your group would like to conduct in support of SARA's work, we are all ears! We are typically looking for groups that are open hosting supply drives or fundraising events. If you are interested in hosting a fundraising event or supply drive, you can utilize the Fundraise for SARA toolkit linked below.
