Want to make a difference helping to prevent and reduce the growing problems of domestic abuse, dating abuse, child abuse/neglect and family pet abuse?

Rockwall County Volunteer Opportunities:

The majority of our public awareness and educational activities are currently focused in our own back yard upon rapidly-growing Rockwall County. Since 2006 Foundation founder and Rockwall resident J.J. Smith has been working hard to organize a community-wide effort to combat and prevent family violence. Much progress has been made, networking with professionals from law enforcement,  criminal justice, schools, health care, social service agencies and government.

Professionals from these groups are doing all they can to combat abuse problems, so now volunteers are needed to help:

  • Identify local assistance services for victims and offenders
  • Find needed assistance services located outside of our area
  • Produce a community resources booklet (with Helping Hands)
  • Network with community leaders to expand local services
  • Network with community leaders to bring additional needed services here
  • Raise funds to help pay for needed services
  • Organize meetings to ensure services are working together
  • Arrange for our speakers to make presentations to local organizations
  • Speak publicly to local organizations
  • Send emails, make phone calls, attend meetings and more
  • Recruit more abuse survivors who want to get involved
  • Recruit more concerned citizens who want to make a difference
  • Assist victims to find the help they need
  • Organize events, such as a gala, our second annual Race To End Abuse 5K/Walk and more

Volunteer opportunities outside of Rockwall County:

If you live outside of Rockwall County and would like to help us develop campaigns in media, schools and communities to prevent and end abuse, then your assistance is also needed.

Volunteers are needed to:

  • Establish new Lillian Smith Foundation chapters
  • Expanding our dating abuse dangers programs across DFW & North Texas
  • Organize fundraising events, including races and galas 
  • Organize protest marches and online petition drives
