SWIC is participating in the following community events:




Are you looking for a speaker at an event in the fall or
trying to inform your staff, students, co-workers, or families
about the dangers of domestic violence and dating violence?
If so, contact, Iris, SWIC’s Community Education Specialist
and Volunteer Coordinator, to present accurate and up-to-date
information about domestic violence, safety planning, SWIC
services, and how you can help. Darla, another SWIC staff
member, speaks to churches or church groups about building
bridges between SWIC and the faith community to enhance safety
and better serve survivors in our community. If interested,
please call Darla or Iris at 570.622.3991.

VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES

If any indirect or direct service volunteers are interested
in helping at either of the above listed
events/opportunities, please contact Darla at 570.622.3991
or swicmedadv@comcast.net.

In addition, as SWIC’s shelter undergoes major renovations,
various items must be packed up and moved
(perhaps more than once) as we continue to provide
comprehensive services during the renovations. Indirect or
Direct Service Volunteers can help with packing/unpacking,
property upkeep (sweeping, pulling weeds, picking up trash, etc.),
organizing closets, preparing training manuals for the fall
volunteer training, photocopying, and more.

Direct Service Volunteer opportunities include hotline
coverage and shelter coverage. Any volunteers who have
completed the 45-hour training and are interested in
specialized training for shelter coverage or courthouse
assistance should contact Iris for scheduling of that training.

If you have any block of time available, please contact Iris
at 570.622.3991 to arrange times and projects for your assistance.
If you schedule a time to come and then can not make it,
please call the office to let us know.


Next Volunteer Training in Fall
The next Volunteer Training for Direct Service Volunteers
will begin in September. The training is usually held two
nights a week for six weeks. If you are interested, please
contact Darla at 570.622.3991.
