The POW Peer Counseling POW PCP is a free, confidential, and anonymous phone service available to all Pink City Corp members and affiliates who wish to share a problem, need referral information, or just want to talk to an unbiased listener. The service is staffed by member volunteers who are active listeners, dedicated, empathetic, and committed to helping others. We want individuals who are willing and able to problem solve without sharing personal information, experiences, and opinions. This is a volunteer position and an opportunity to practice active listening skills.

- Convey trust, anonymity and assure confidentiality within guidelines to members who seek assistance from the POW! Peer Counselor Program.
- Attend monthly meeting sessions and maintain contact with Program coordinator.
- Work on the POW! PCP X hours per week.

- Maintain contact with those requiring assistance, and document contacts and conversations
