VOICES members are volunteers with a lived experience of domestic and/or sexual violence who join together to celebrate strength and survival. Members use their voices to help others through advocacy, education, and empowerment. Applicants should be safe from ongoing violence, not currently in court proceedings regarding their prior victimization and have actively participated in healing from their experience.

Members complete a membership application and interview with the VOICES Chair and/or the Prince George’s County Family Justice Center (PGCFJC) Coordinator. Members agree to attend at least four meetings a year and support the work of the VOICES Committee throughout the year.
