Volunteer

​

Volunteers are an important part of the Tuscaloosa SAFE Center’s mission. By serving alongside our staff, volunteers help ensure survivors receive compassionate care and steady support during a difficult time.

Because of the sensitive nature of our work, volunteering requires commitment, reliability, and a willingness to learn.

All volunteers must complete an application, participate in an interview, pass a criminal background check, and attend a mandatory training before beginning service.

Medical Advocates

​

Medical advocates provide support to patients during the forensic exam process. They offer a calm presence, help patients feel informed, and stand alongside them throughout their time at the SAFE Center.

This role requires emotional maturity, discretion, and dependability. We provide specialized training to prepare each advocate to serve with confidence and care.
