Our volunteers help create safer, stronger communities. Whether you share information about Esperanza at a community event, help raise awareness about domestic violence, or contribute a special skill, your time makes a difference.
Domestic violence affects our entire community—and everyone has a role to play in prevention. We are growing our Community Outreach Program and need volunteers to represent Esperanza Shelter at events throughout the community, share information about our services, and help connect us with businesses and organizations that can share our resources with their teams.
This is one of the most meaningful ways you can help Esperanza Shelter. Explore the opportunities below to find a role that’s right for you.
Client-facing volunteer opportunities require completion of Advocacy Essentials Training, a free, one week 40-hour training offered quarterly by the New Mexico Coalition Against Domestic Violence. Volunteers must also complete a background check and drug and TB testing ($59 total).
We’re grateful for every volunteer who helps Esperanza Shelter create safety today and work toward ending violence tomorrow.
Tell us a little about yourself and how you’d like to help. We’ll use your interests, skills, and availability to connect you with the right volunteer opportunities.
