Because of the sensitive nature of our work, most volunteer positions do involve significant training. We ask that volunteers who complete the training commit to 4-6 hours weekly or biweekly of volunteer time for a minimum of 6 months. It is our volunteer corps that is responsible for answering our 27/4 hotline, as well as responding to victims at the hospital. Volunteers also assist with representing Signs of HOPE at outreach and community events and help out in our office.
