CONTACT offers a 8-session training program, in which volunteers learn counseling skills used in dealing with critical human issues.  This intensive training program was created to give volunteers the tools needed to effectively handle crisis situations.  It also helps volunteers to understand and manage relationships and problems in their own lives.
