VIP - Volunteer Coordinator (SHRCC)
 
 
 
This position is part of the VISTAs in the Piedmont (VIP) program sponsored by United Way of the Piedmont. Safe Homes serves community members that have been victims of domestic violence and/or sexual assault. The utilization of volunteers is critical to the services we provide. As a VISTA, you will focus on our volunteer recruitment and management program, completing a strengths assessment, researching comparable programs and best practices, and implementing the results of those activities. You will need to be innovative and willing to challenge the status quo in order to help us utilize volunteers most effectively to serve our clients. The VIP program offers a unique approach to VISTA service, as you will spend 10% of your time each week working collaboratively with 19 other VISTA members placed in the community to research and implement community-wide solutions focusing on either increasing access to behavioral healthcare or increasing financial stability.
