Volunteers are an essential part of New Directions and the hope we provide every day.

Whether you can give an hour, a day, or serve on an ongoing basis, we offer a wide variety of volunteer opportunities across our Men's, Women's, and Family Shelters, as well as our kitchen and support services.

By volunteering, you're doing more than giving your time, you are helping individuals and families experiencing homelessness move toward stability, recovery, and self-sufficiency. Every meal served, every donation sorted, every family activity, and every encouraging interaction helps create a pathway to permanent housing and a brighter future. Join us in making a meaningful difference in our community.
