Come as you are
“I love that volunteering with SPW doesn't feel like you're there to work, they make volunteering fun, and easy. The staff is incredibly appreciative, and supportive - they make you feel a part of the SPW family. I volunteer with SPW because I believe harm reduction is an awesome way to help keep our loved ones safe and put an end to overdoses.”
