Volunteer at Mutual Ground

Mutual Ground relies on the dedication of hundreds of volunteers every year! There are two different types of volunteering opportunities with Mutual Ground, Ambassador and Direct Service Volunteers.

At Mutual Ground, Direct Service Volunteers work directly with survivors in our community. Volunteers provide victim advocacy at local hospitals and law enforcement centers, talk to callers on the hotline, and support families with childcare.
