REACH’s Fall Training series is quickly approaching and scheduled to begin September 9th. The training is an opportunity for community members, other service providers, as well as new REACH staff and volunteers to learn about domestic violence and how to support survivors.
REACH is currently accepting applications for interns and volunteers, especially those interested in Reception or Childcare positions. To learn more about ways to become involved or download an application, please visit the Get Involved page on our website.
Registration is required to attend these trainings. Community members are invited to attend one, several, or all sessions. The fee for community members to participate is either $50 per session, or $250 for the full training. If cost is prohibitive, please email lauren@reachma.org to discuss accommodations. There is no fee for volunteers or interns with REACH.
