RUMFORD — Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Services is seeking volunteer advocates to respond to its 24-hour crisis and support line to help people affected by sexual assault, childhood sexual abuse, stalking or sexual harassment.
Volunteer advocates must be at least 18, empathetic and dependable with access to reliable transportation. All potential volunteers must complete the training and screening process, including criminal and DHHS background checks. No prior experience is necessary.
A new training session for volunteer advocates is scheduled to take place in Rumford starting in June and will run 4-6 weeks. Exact days and times of training will be determined.
