Volunteer with Newhouse

It takes the entire community coming together to overcome domestic violence. One way of contributing is giving of your time and talent. We love partnering with individuals and community groups who have a passion for giving back to survivors of domestic violence. Whatever your skillset or interest is — there is place for you to serve at Newhouse! Thank YOU for your interest in supporting our survivors and families!

Ways to Volunteer

STEPS TO BECOMing a VOLUNTEER:

For the privacy and safety of our on-site volunteers, we have steps in place to become an official Newhouse volunteer.

1. Register on VolunteerHub.

Upon registering you’ll sign a confidentiality agreement, and then get a link to do a background check.

2. Submit your background check.

Please note that you have complete anonymity and we will not see any of the information on the report. Once we receive approval notice, you will get an email with welcome information, the volunteer handbook, and a link to full access to the VolunteerHub portal where you can sign up for volunteer opportunities.

3. Sign up for a volunteer job, date, and time.

Don’t see an exact time or role that fits for you? Email Kelly.
