Come and be a Childcare Aide for Refugee and Immigrant Services (RICS)! RICS is a refugee resettlement agency serving refugees primarily from Burma, Bhutan, and Iraq. Every Wednesday from 12:30-2:00PM, we host a Women’s Group for refugee women. In order to prevent distractions during this time, we need volunteers to watch their kids while this group takes place. Our office has an Early Childhood Education room with education activities, toys, and arts and crafts, so there will be plenty of activities to do with the kids!
