Are you available to help with one of our daily Animal Care shifts from 8-noon or 4-6 pm? We need volunteers to help love and care for our more than 100 animals. We use these animals as therapeutic partners for special needs children, the elderly, the homeless, patients at TMC, siblings and families of ill children at Ronald McDonald House, students at the Arizona School for the Deaf and Blind and more.
Help TRAK by volunteering at the ranch. We need people to do all sorts of work at the ranch. We are looking for people to assist with AM and PM ranch hand work-- feeding and caring for our animals as well as ranch clean-up and maintenance.

About Therapeutic Ranch for Animals and Kids (TRAK)
Location:
3250 E Allen Road, TUCSON, AZ 85718, US
Mission Statement
Strengthening Kids & Community Through Animal Interaction
Description
TRAK is a not-for-profit program available to the youth of the Tucson community who are with or without specific challenges. The focus of the program is to offer participants the opportunities to provide service to people and animals of the community. This gives an often-rare experience to be a service provider. Participants will receive specific skills and training that will aid in their efforts to help themselves, each other and their community.
TRAK and its more than 100 animals are known for providing comfort to children with physical and emotional disabilities and illnesses as well as those with social, behavioural or self-esteem issues.
We know that caring for the animals improves self-confidence and social skills, helps develop a sense of responsibility and work ethic and provides an opportunity to learn communication and self-awareness.
