Volunteer Opportunities

OUR HEARTBEAT
Volunteers are the heartbeat of First Step Pregnancy Resource Center! They are our most valuable resource. Our client advocates, sonographers, and receptionists are required to complete 10 -20 hours of training and undergo several weeks of orientation before seeing clients one-on-one.

First Step Pregnancy Resource Center volunteers are highly committed, compassionate people who make a big difference in the lives of our clients. A typical time commitment involves a weekly four-hour shift. Because we are committed to upholding a high level of care for the women who come to us, all potential volunteers undergo a screening and interview process.
