AG's office seeks volunteers to take calls on consumer protection hotline

CNCORD - The Attorney General's Office recently announced today that his office is accepting applications for volunteers to work as Consumer Affairs Specialists in the Consumer Protection and Antitrust Bureau.

Consumer Affairs Specialists work closely with attorneys and support staff to respond to calls on the consumer protection hotline. This rewarding opportunity will provide volunteers with the chance to use their valuable life and work experiences to make a difference in the lives of New Hampshire consumers who have been victimized by unlawful business practices. Consumer Affairs Specialists are vital to the Attorney General's mission to enforce state consumer protection laws and provide callers with basic information regarding their rights and options as New Hampshire Consumers.

Adults of all ages are encouraged to apply. Volunteers will be asked to commit to 4-6 hours per week. All necessary training and mentorship will be provided. Successful candidates must pass a background check and have excellent interpersonal skills. Experience interacting with the public is a plus but is not required.

Anyone interested in learning more about this volunteer opportunity may contact the Consumer Protection and Antitrust Bureau at (603) 271-3641 or DOJ-CPB@doj.nh.gov.
