The Josephine County Victim Assistance Program has many opportunities for volunteers to serve the community by working with victims of crime. Volunteers make it possible for us to provide many needed services to crime victims. There are several ways in which volunteers can contribute their time, compassion and skills. If you can commit some time to this very valuable endeavor, please submit an application to the District Attorney’s Office. A link to a Volunteer Application form is located at the bottom of this page.
