Meet With Clients
Thank you for exploring ways to get involved with AWPC. We have the privilege of sharing God’s love, compassion and truth with the women and men who come here. Our volunteers are on the front line of the services we offer, and we rely on and value their contributions immensely. If you are interested in volunteering with us, please call our office to inquire about a Volunteer Application.
Then give us a call at 850-297-1174 and ask for Sherri or Christy!
New Counselor Interactive Workshop
This Workshop is required for those volunteers who will be meeting with clients. For those planning on being Belly Boutique or Office Volunteers, it’s from 8:30 am – Noon. For those planning on being options counselors, STD counselors, and ultrasound and STD nurses, it’s from 8:30 am – 5:00 pm. The Workshop will be held at a location to be determined.
A continental breakfast and lunch will be provided to nourish your body as we nourish your spirit and mind with the information needed to meet our clients compassionately where they are, and provide them with information and resources they need to make an informed choice regarding their pregnancy.
Please call Sherri, our Director of Client Services, at (850) 297-1174 to register.
In-service
In-service is for current volunteers who meet with clients. We provide ongoing training to keep volunteers up to date on the most current resources available to our clients.
As a reminder, these in-services are gently mandatory to better equip you to minister to the men and women and babies we serve. If you cannot make it, we understand.
Thank you for ALL you do to serve the men and women that come here. God is doing amazing things in the lives of our clients and you are HIS hands and feet. To God be the glory!

Volunteer Behind the Scenes
Thank you for exploring ways to get involved with AWPC. Just as important as meeting with clients, these tasks have to be accomplished so that we keep the front line of peer counselors free to meet with clients. If you are interested in volunteering with us, please complete a Volunteer Application (please call our office to inquire about receiving an application). If you are interested in hosting a baby shower, please view our Needs List.

Events

Building and Grounds
Also known as HANDYMAN! We often have odd jobs that need attention. Many times these include some light painting, small repair, or other small tasks around the Center. If you are skilled in a specific area and are willing to lend your services, please contact us and let us know. We keep a list of facility helpers and will contact you if a need arises. Yard work, painting, window washing, a/c filter changing – opportunities abound!
