DMRS values the time, talents, and passions that volunteers contribute to achieving our mission.  Volunteer involvement expands our capacity to meet the increasing demand for our services; it also brings new ideas, fresh perspectives, and a wealth of knowledge and skill that improve our organization and the services we provide.  We are committed to creating a warm, safe, and inclusive environment where the unique gifts of volunteers are recognized and nurtured.
