We are in search of Burlington area volunteers who respond to Aurora Memorial Hospital of Burlington and do not respond to the calls on the crisis line. Burlington volunteers provide support and information about resources to survivors while they are at the hospital. The time and duration of on call shifts in Burlington are flexible.
All of our Volunteer Advocates must be at least 18 years old, have access to a car or reliable transportation, attend our comprehensive training, and pass a background check (there may be additional requirements depending on where the Volunteer Advocate is responding). Volunteer Advocates must also be able to respond to the hospital within approximately 30-45 minutes while on call.
The Volunteer Advocate training consists of about 18 hours of material spread over several evenings and/or weekend days. If you are interested in becoming a Volunteer Advocate, please contact our Volunteer Coordinator, Trene McCaskill at: (262) 619-1634 Ext. 118 or tmccaskill@beleafsurvivors.org
