Ways to Volunteer

Volunteer Opportunities
Mobile Response Team
As a volunteer advocate, you will play an essential role in the healing process for the survivors we serve. Our specially trained volunteer advocates provide resources and support in hospital emergency rooms and community centers during medical forensic sexual assault exams as part of the 24-hour Mobile Response Team. A reliable form of transportation is required for all Mobile Response Team volunteers. Volunteers respond to sexual assault forensic exams throughout the Salt Lake Valley.
Community Outreach
As a volunteer, you will be engaging with the community to help us reach potential survivors and provide prevention education. This includes tabling, developing educational materials, or presenting.
Administrative & Special Projects
Volunteers are needed for various special projects, small tasks, and ongoing office work. These positions offer a meaningful way to support survivors without being involved with direct services.
