Evening Kids Activity Coordinators Needed at a YWCA Shelter

Save to Favorites

Do you enjoy reading books and finger painting? We are looking for volunteers to assist in the DV program children's playroom room during the week. Volunteer Activity Coordinators engage with the children through positive games, help set up story time, crafts, games, videos, to create a positive and engaging atmosphere for the kids. We have kids of all ages, but tend to be more towards the 5-12 year olds currently.

• Volunteers must be female (or accompanied by a female).
• All volunteers will be required to provide references, complete an interview, and clear a Criminal Background Check.
• Volunteers will complete a small orientation and cultural competency training on their first night.
• Volunteers will also be expected to attend a YWCA Volunteer Orientation within a month of starting.

Because of the confidential nature of this volunteer position, information on the program will be released only after the volunteer has been approved.
