We are looking for caring, dedicated and mature people to provide front line support, information and referrals to victims, families, and other affected by crime or tragedy.
Child & Family Support
Volunteers are needed to be present with the child before and after the child’s interview with RCMP. The main objectives of the Child & Family Support Volunteer is to provide comfort and emotional support to the child, and support for non-offending caregivers/family. Support may be needed at intake, during court preparation, and court accompaniment.
