Support families during difficult time
Looking for a rewarding opportunity where your time and energy can make a difference for children and families? Consider becoming a volunteer for the St. Cloud Area Crisis Nursery, a program of Lutheran Social Service of Minnesota. This family-focused service provides free, 24-hour hotline support to parents dealing with personal stress or crisis, such as an illness, housing problems, financial strains or other issues. The Crisis Nursery needs volunteers like you to counsel and support families that call the hotline from 5 p.m.-8 a.m. Monday-Friday and on weekends.
As a volunteer, you will answer the hotline from home, you determine your availability and dedicate as much time as your schedule allows. You will need to attend a two-hour orientation with the facilitator and receive all the information you need to help families. This is an extremely rewarding opportunity that supports families in your community. You can make a significant difference in the lives by contacting Connie Orth, St. Cloud Area Crisis Nursery, at 320-654-1090 or connie.orth@lssmn.org.
