Peacemaker Volunteers

 

Together, We WILL Make a Difference.

     Peacemaker Volunteers are regular people from a variety of professions and educational backgrounds, and the majority work full time.  The staff is committed to supporting our volunteers, and extensive training is provided at little or no cost.  Some volunteers have previous experience; many have no experience at all!

  

Interested in volunteering?

     The Peacemaker Program holds both Child Advocate training and Basic Mediation training each a year.  If you're interested in giving children a voice in court, or helping inspire solutions with individuals and families, these are the trainings for you.  Don't wait until we fill our next class; sign up today!
