At LPSC, we believe that community involvement is one of the greatest forms of love. By volunteering, you’re helping ensure that families and their children are seen, validated, and empowered.
We are currently seeking dedicated volunteers for the following roles:
E-Administrative Support: Help manage our operations and keep our collective running smoothly.
LPSC Social Media: Share our mission and amplify our impact through engaging content.
Liberation Mentorship: Guide and empower families and youth as part of our mentorship programs.
Our home base is in the DMV area, with services and support provided both in person in the DMV and virtually outside the region.
If the listed positions are not currently open, we still encourage you to send us a message of interest. We are always excited to connect with passionate individuals who align with our mission.
Please note: Any volunteer work involving children requires accountability measures, including a background check, to ensure the safety and well-being of the families we serve.
Together, we can create a more inclusive, supportive world. Join us in making a difference!
