Why Should I Volunteer?Why should I volunteer?Southwest Multi County Corrections Center (SWMCCC) relies on volunteers from our communities to be that link between incarceration and their release back to the community. Through an investment from the community and its members, they can become successful and productive citizens. YOU can make a huge and positive difference in their lives.
What do volunteers do?Volunteers serve a critical role in our correctional facilities. SWMCCC works with volunteers from multiple educational, cultural, and religious groups. We have volunteers who facilitate recovery programs, provide religious services, or teach art classes. Volunteers serve as role models for work ethic, behavior, and effective interpersonal skills. As a volunteer, YOU are influencing lifestyle changes and offering a very important link to the community. This allows residents the ability to connect or stay connected to resources in the community upon their release.
