You can help us ensure all children grow up safe, nurtured, and free from abuse.
Interested in volunteering? We have plenty of opportunities. Serve as a child advocate in our front lobby, help with facility repairs and renovations, or join an event committee. The Dee Norton Child Advocacy Center relies on our volunteers to help us achieve our goal of reducing the incidence of child abuse and its impact on our community.
Child Advocates
Interact with children in our lobby and ensure their safety while in our waiting area. Child advocate volunteers are required to attend a volunteer orientation, held by staff members, that familiarizes them with confidentiality issues and prepares them for any situations that may arise while volunteering. Anyone volunteering as a child advocate must sign sign a confidentiality statement, as well as give authorization for a background check. There is a $10 non-refundable fee that must be paid in advance to cover the cost of a South Carolina background check.
Other Opportunities
If you have a specific volunteer opportunity you think would benefit the Center, let us know! Our volunteers are an integral part of what we do at the Dee Norton Child Advocacy Center.
