In 2022, our volunteers dedicated more than 3,000 hours of their time to helping survivors of sexual violence.

Without the help of these amazing volunteers, our services could not happen.
 

Whether you can volunteer a few hours or multiple days a month, Pickens County Advocacy Center would be happy to have you!

Pickens County Advocacy Center offers training for all volunteers who wish to aid in the impact of these survivors. Our training is mostly online and self-paced, so it is perfect for anyone. During training, you will learn about the impacts of sexual violence, crisis intervention, victim advocacy, and so much more.

On-Call Victim Advocates require a 25-hour training course to learn how to effectively navigate answering crisis calls and accompanying survivors to the hospital.

Our volunteer opportunities include: 

• On-Call Victim Advocacy - answering calls on the crisis hotline and accompanying survivors to the hospital

• Administrative Work -  light office work, answering phone calls, organizing survivor support closet, data entry, etc.

• Fundraising Assistance -  giving out fundraising information packets to community members, sending donor mail packets, etc
