Volunteers are Always Needed!
There are many ways to support your community. One of these ways is to be a volunteer! You can never imagine how much just a few hours of your time can mean to someone else. Volunteering can also help you meet new people, make new friends and become an important part of your community. Volunteers are always needed and appreciated!
Volunteers serve both clients and staff. Some volunteer positions include: Adopt a Client, Respite Home Care, Staff Aide, Interpreter, Home Repair, Transportation, Legal Aide, Project Coordinator and Solicitor of Resources.
