Play-Place for Autistic Children, located in Sterling Heights,needs patient, caring, smiling, volunteer licensed hair stylists that love children! Our center is for children and young adults affected by autism and other special needs challenges. We need volunteers to service our children and families in our onsite "Haircut Hut". Our hair salon will be debuting Monday August 29, 2016 and will be open initially on Mondays and Tuesdays from 10:00 am until 4:00 pm. We have two styling stations, a shampoo bowl/chair, and shampoo, conditioner and styling products available. Please bring your own styling tools. This is one of the most anticipated features of our new center for the over 8,000 Macomb tri-county area families. Our special needs families are thrilled to finally have the opportunity for a soothing grooming experience for their child or young adult. Haircuts can be traumatic for children with special needs. We hope to change that experience! You can transform a child's life by volunteering at Play-Place's Haircut Hut!
