Volunteer with Us!
Sisters in Crime-Colorado is an organization run completely by volunteers and we strive to have every single member involved.
Every member of SinC-CO has expertise, whether they believe it or not! We firmly believe in the "one hand forward and one hand back" philosophy. No matter where you are in your journey, you can help someone and you can receive help from someone.
With that in mind, we have a loooong list of ways our members can be of service to each other and enrich their own experience.
Available Opportunities
Bookstore/Library Liaisons
Love your local bookstore or library? We do too! We're looking for people who want to explore opportunities to get chapter anthology and members' books into bookstores, libraries, specialty stores, perhaps with dedicated "Local Author" tables and branding.
Membership Growth and Outreach
We're looking for members who want to develop ideas to increase our membership and who want to help other members maximize their membership benefits. You would work closely with Membership Chair Colette Auclair, who would love your support!
Newsletter Editor
We launched our new newsletter Detection Connection this year with the idea of keeping our members informed and letting others in the crime fiction world - booksellers, librarians, readers - learn more about what we do. Experience with newsletter platforms is helpful but not required.
Programming
We're looking for for help putting together our daylong Quarterly Events, our main in-person gatherings for our chapter. Identify topics and work with speakers for morning and afternoon sessions. You would work closely with Programming Chair Nancy Mitchell, who would love your help!
Social Media
Are you already checking your favorite social media platform daily? Ready to add posting info and graphics we provide to your routine a couple times a week? We're looking for help on platforms including BlueSky, Facebook, Pinterest and Goodreads.
Zoom Events
We're looking for members who want to create and facilitate online opportunities for fun and education. You would work closely with members of our Field Trips committee to put together virtual events that are offered quarterly for our members in Colorado and beyond.
