The Exponents organization is seeking volunteers who are interested in facilitating recreational and/or health and wellness sessions for our participants. These sessions can include Yoga, Tai Chi creative writing, Art therapy, nutrition and acting workshops.
Our participant population confronts the challenges associated with chronic conditions on a daily basis. Exponents has assisted thousands of individuals in stabilizing their personal lives by providing access into primary and mental health care. We further assist them by providing access to our job readiness program with the goal of preparing them for positions in the HIV and substance abuse field.
Volunteers have a direct impact upon the development of people that avail themselves of our services. As a volunteer providing recreational, health and wellness sessions you will directly influence participants in learning new ways to improve their quality of life and enrich their life experience
