VOLUNTEERS
Volunteers are vital to the Saskatoon Sexual Assault & Information Centre 24-Hour Crisis Line. Volunteer Training is offered three times each year, and includes information on a variety of topics including: sexual harassment, recent sexual assault, child sexual abuse, adult survivors of child sexual abuse, domestic violence, self-abuse, suicide, the Legal and Medical processes, communication skills and self care.
- Volunteers are provided with over 30 hours of training in order to better equip them for the variety of calls they will experience on the Crisis Line.
- Volunteers are asked to commit themselves for one year of service, taking at least 4 Crisis Line shifts per month.
- Volunteers find their experience to be challenging and rewarding.
- SSAIC is always seeking individuals -female or male- who have good listening skills, are compassionate and sensitive to client issues, and who can provide support in a non-judgmental manner.
If you have question regarding volunteering and volunteer training at the Centre, please call 244-2294.
