Where to Begin

There is more than one way to help. You do not need to work directly with clients to make a serious contribution. Start with what you can do well.

Protection First

Volunteering is not a shortcut into someone else's story. Any contribution must strengthen safety, dignity, and local leadership. Never create new pressure or exposure.

Safeguarding and principles

Our commitment to safety.

Casa Vida works with women and children affected by violence. Every contribution must strengthen safety, dignity and local leadership. It must never create new pressure or exposure.

Safeguard 01

Survivor privacy and informed consent come first.

Safeguard 02

Volunteer roles are agreed around a real organisational need.

Safeguard 03

Direct contact with clients is never assumed or automatic.

Safeguard 04

Casa Vida will explain the appropriate scope, supervision and next step.

For people and partners

Join Casa Vida in protecting and supporting women and children.
