As a recent retiree, I have been looking for a place to volunteer that I felt was truly worth my time and energy. After investigating several other options, I came across ACT. From my first contact with the organization, I felt that it was a well-run operation. After attending the mandatory training for volunteers, I was convinced of 2 things: (1) there is a great need in our community for service to women and children (and some men) living in abusive situations; (2) ACT is uniquely poised with experience and personnel to address this need. ACT has many dedicated and loyal volunteers for a reason - it is a great organization!
