Intern, Volunteer and Work-study Opportunities

Our continued goal is to build a staff that is fully representative of the community we serve. Application deadline for Educator Advocates is April 15th and any time for Counselor Advocates.

Become an Educator Advocate!

Using education as a tool for change, we work to prevent sexual violence and relationship violence on campus and in the community. We facilitate workshops, discussions, and events at UMass, other local colleges, middle and high schools, community organization and businesses throughout Hampshire.

Become a Counselor/Advocate!

We seek people with a strong commitment to better understand issues of sexual violence and a desire to support and advocate for victims and survivors of sexual violence. This requires strong listening skills, but no previous counseling experience is expected.
