Volunteers of America Texas is in search of a passionate and energetic leader to read to our clients at Dartmouth, a group home for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
The Reading Support will have the opportunity to read to the residents of Dartmouth. They will help select a book and/or story and read/look through it with the attendees. This is an opportunity to work and partake in a fun activity with the residents. With volunteers serving in this capacity, it allows the individuals participating in the class to socialize with a new face and remain mentally engaged.
Volunteers with a desire to work with disabled adults are welcome to apply.
If you are interested, please contact Volunteer Services at volunteer@voatx.org.
