Volunteer Opportunities
The Mount Laurel, Moorestown, and Maple Shade Police Departments, in collaboration with Providence House, are currently recruiting volunteers for their Domestic Violence Response Team (DVRT). Team members work in conjunction with the police to provide victim support, information, and referral at the time of a domestic violence crisis.
Providence House and the police departments are committed to supporting a multi-racial, multi-ethnic team to serve our communities and assist victims of domestic violence.
