How do I become a volunteer?
All DRC’s primary services are delivered by volunteers. There are many opportunities to volunteer with DRC, such as volunteering as a mediator, facilitator, or circle keeper. You can volunteer to assist with administrative support or outreach. You can also serve as a board member or committee member.
I'd love to be a donor!
The work of DRC would not be possible without donations from individuals, foundations, corporations, and associations. You can know that your contribution will be put to good use serving your community. Donate to DRC and help your community.
Where can I find other resources?
