Southern Wake Outreach Center
In 2005, Interact opened the Southern Wake Outreach Center at 309 South Main St. in
Fuquay-Varina, North Carolina as its first counseling center outside Raleigh. Located
in the heart of downtown Fuquay-Varina, the center is easily accessible to residents
in southern Wake County.
A full-time domestic violence and sexual assault counselor provides free and
confidential services at the center. The staff and volunteers provide community
outreach presentations in local faith communities, civic organizations, libraries,
businesses and law enforcement and human service agencies.
The center also houses Interact's Pass It On, an upscale thrift store that sells new
and used women's and children's clothing. Proceeds from sales at
Pass It On help
cover the costs to provide counseling services at the outreach center.
Community support is vital to the success of the outreach center. Volunteer
opportunities are available to individuals who can commit at least one to four hours
a week. Learn more about the volunteer positions on the Volunteer page.
The Southern Wake Outreach Center is open Tuesday - Friday from 10:00 am - 6:00 pm
and Saturday from 10:00 am - 4:00 pm. Call 919-557-8020 for more
information.
