Team members work in conjunction with the police to provide victim support, information and referral at the time of a domestic violence crisis. A few hours of your time can make a difference in someone’s life. Domestic Violence is a problem. Are you willing to be part of the solution?
Applicants must be 18 years of age, have access to transportation, possess a valid driver’s license and be willing to serve a minimum of four, 12-hour shifts per month and submit to background investigations, including fingerprinting. A 40-hour mandatory intensive training course is required and will be provided to successful applicants.
The course is held over a six-week period, during evening hours, and includes observations at Superior Court in Mount Holly. There is no fee for the course. An understanding of domestic violence issues is a plus, as is any bilingual capability.

Calling all campers. Fernbrook Farms Education Center’s Summer Day Camp program still has space available for children ages 6 to 11.
From 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., campers can choose the activities they want to participate in and there are always brand new ones to pick from every day.
During a typical week at Fernbrook Farms Summer Camp children may find themselves exploring the ponds and creeks, collecting vegetables, making musical instruments, learning about wilderness survival and wishing the day wouldn’t come to an end.
Guided by experienced staff in groups of no more than 10, all activities help children see the connections that can be made between agriculture, the natural world and themselves.
