Put smiles on the faces of a group of developmentally disabled adults while sharing your musical talents. We are seeking a volunteer to come in late morning or around 1 p.m. on a Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday to play our newly acquired baby grand piano.
We are very flexible about the session. You can play background music, conduct a mini concert for a group of clients or lead a sing along - whatever is most comfortable for you. We are also flexible about the commitment - can be one time or as often as you wish. We welcome you to schedule a tour and tickle the ivories to see if it is a fit for you, before scheduling further sessions.
Merrick Inc. Adult Day and Memory Care Services provides comprehensive day services for developmentally disabled adults and adults with memory loss issues in a clean and welcoming environment in downtown North St. Paul.

Mission Statement
Our mission is to empower adults with disabilities through vocational and social opportunities, and to guide them toward realizing their goals and dreams.
Description
A human services organization that began in 1964 and now supports over 375 clients, employs over 100 staff, and coordinates services throughout the Twin Cities metropolitan area from our wonderful energy-efficient building in Vadnais Heights, Minnesota. In the summer of 2012 we opened a program site for Adult Day Services (ADS) and Memory Care Services (MCS) in downtown North St. Paul.
We are dedicated to empowering adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) through pre-vocational and life enrichment opportunities, and guiding them toward realizing their goals and dreams. Through person-centered planning and a discovery process, including selfadvocacy, the clients at Merrick are finding their place in the world:
- working in desired jobs;
- engaging in their communities;
- building relationships;
- enhancing personal skills, and
- leading more self-determined lives.
