Welcome to VBJI! We are so grateful for your interest in volunteering with us.
We have a variety of ways you may choose to engage, and filling out an application will give you a chance to select the opportunities that best fit with your talents and availability.
We are currently hosting periodic virtual volunteer orientation sessions for those who have submitted an application. Need to submit an application? Click here. You will be contacted by email regarding the next orientation. Most sessions are in the evenings or on a weekend afternoon. It is a final requirement before serving as a volunteer with VBJI, so we will do our best to make one available at a time that works for you.
The Virginia Beach Justice Initiative is always seeking volunteers with a variety of skills. Volunteers dedicate their time based on their schedules. Opportunities are available in the following areas: Short- and Long-Term Victim Advocacy, Business Outreach, Admin, Church Mobilization, Community Awareness Meetings, Fundraising, Marketing, Audio/Visual, Internet Technologies, Social Media, Intercessory Prayer/Worship Leaders for Prayer Meetings, and more!
