| Volunteers at DASI provide a wide variety of services to assist victims of domestic violence and sexual assault and abuse. Volunteers enhance the work we do and are vital to our mission. Opportunities are available working directly with our clients, and working to assist staff and the agency in general. Due to the sensitive nature of the work and to certain legal requirements, volunteers may need to complete specialized training before active participation. |
