South County Recovery Center seeks volunteers

At the South County Recovery Center, we believe that the opposite of addiction is connection. Connection is at the heart of everything we do. Building a strong recovery community is a driving factor in our mission. WE cannot do this without YOU!!!

We have scheduled a volunteer information/orientation session for Monday, November 7 at 5:30 at the South County Recovery Center 67 State Road Great Barrington, MA

We are seeking volunteers to help our growing recovery center and we need your help! We are currently seeking volunteers to help with the following:

Volunteer Coordinator: Help to coordinate and support the volunteers by scheduling, updating volunteer email list, orientate new volunteers and whatever else you may bring to the table.

Front Desk: be the first person someone sees when they walk through the door of the center. Help to connect individuals to the service we, or our partners, offer. Answer phone calls, provide information, possible data entry, etc…

Peer-support: be a presence in the center. Come share your experience, strength, and hope to whomever may be looking for it. We want to ensure that when help is sought, it is found. Your voice is important. Share it!

Group facilitators: we need YOU to offer programming at the center. Want to start a hiking group? Great! Let us know when! Want to offer a 12-Step meeting? Awesome!!!! What day and time? There are no bad ideas. Stop in, let us know what you, as a recovery community member, wants to see and what the community needs. We will support it anyway we can.

General Housekeeping: our center is not huge, but it could use a tidying occasionally. Service is a major contributing factor to long-tern recovery.

Plant tender: we have a ton of plants! Do you have a green thumb? We need you help to keep them watered, healthy, and happy!

All of these positions are new and open to revision. Want to offer something else? Please stop by!

If interested, please stop in Monday, Wednesday, or Friday 10am-4:30pm, call (413) 645-3564, or email help@rural-recovery.org
