Interested in becoming a member? For more information check out our website. Just download the application, fill it out and mail it in. A back ground check will be conducted as well as an interview. If everything checks out a mandatory 40 hrs of training will need to be completed along with 10 hours of in field experience. We take domestic violence very seriously and we pride ourselves in knowing that each member is extremely knowledgeable about what the different types of domestic violence are and the resources available to all victims.

A member is always on call - we are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year to the community we service. The best way to reach us is to go down to the Woodbridge Twp Police Department and ask to speak with the volunteer on call. The officer will call one of our training seasoned members to come down to the station to meet with you. You may also call or email us, but these are not manned lines of communication. Some one will get back to you as soon as they can but if it is an emergency please do not wait!

To date we have offered assistance to thousands of victims of domestic violence and made many strides in educating our community. We provide support and assistance to any victim, regardless of race, religion or gender. Unfortunately, we have much more work to do as domestic violence remains at epidemic proportions. In 2010 there were 923 reported cases of domestic violence in Woodbridge Twp alone! Imagine how many more cases went unreported.
