Volunteer

"I love volunteering with CLAIM. The time commitment is very doable -- only about 3 hours a month -- and the hours are very flexible. As a volunteer, you get excellent training and support from CLAIM staff . . . You also get plugged in to an amazing community of legal workers and activists who are dedicated to reducing incarceration of women and girls."
