If you are interested in having fun, making a social change, or being part of the community, consider some of the volunteer opportunities at A New Hope Center. The center is always looking for individuals, male and female, who have an interest in stopping the violence, a willingness to work with victims of all ages, and an open mind. This fall, they are offering great community education programs for volunteers and anyone interested in learning.
