SAFE offers volunteer training

As a private, non-profit organization for more than 30 years, Services to Abused Families (SAFE) provides shelter and support to victims of domestic and sexual violence in Fauquier, Rappahannock, Culpeper, Madison and Orange counties.

SAFE relies on community volunteers to assist in meeting program goal.

The next volunteer training will be on Saturday's from Oct. 27 through Nov. 17 from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. with a 45-minute lunch break (on you own).

This is an opportunity to learn first-hand from professsionals who work with domestic violence and sexual assault survivors on a regular basis.

This in-depth 32-hour program is the same training a new staff member of SAFE receives when joining our agency.

To register, contact Gina Mullins, community outreach coordinator, at: 825-8891 by noon, Oct. 26.

All supplies are furnished for training.
