Who can become a volunteer?
What do volunteers do?
Volunteers provide peer support on the Parent and Family Drug Support Line. Callers will speak to a qualified counsellor first, who will give them the option to speak to a peer volunteer.
Volunteers will be trained to provide this service, which mainly involves active listening, validating and intentional disclosure of their own experiences.
What does the training involve?
Parent and Family Drug Support Volunteers undertake an initial induction training. Ongoing training, presentations and opportunities to meet and learn from your peers are provided regularly throughout the year, from internal and external providers.
