What topics are covered in volunteer training? Why must I attend both OAR and detention center training sessions?
The OAR volunteer training and the detention center training cover different topics and you must attend one of each before you begin your volunteer role. OAR training is designed to provide you with an understanding of Offender Aid and Restoration, the resources you need as a successful volunteer, and your volunteer options. Each of the detention centers has its own training designed to explain security procedure and protocol, provide a tour of the facility, and discuss working with the inmate population.
