Description
Day League is committed to providing services to all Metro Atlanta residents impacted by sexual assault. The majority of the contacts made with the Center are initiated through a 24-hour crisis hotline. There are a variety of call types that come into the crisis line. A sampling of the types of calls received includes survivors calling immediately post-rape, loved ones needing support and information or community members wanting general information. The volunteer’s role is to provide support to these callers using empathy, understanding, good listening skills and factual information. The Center uses generally only female volunteers to staff the crisis line (over 90% of our survivor calls are from women); however, men are encouraged to become trained in crisis techniques to assist both male survivors and male friends and family members on an as needed basis.

Please live in the Georgia area as background checks have to be done in Georgia. Thank You!
