Facilitate peer support groups for children, teens and adults whose lives have been impacted by serious illness or death. Work with an assigned age-group, "littles" (ages 3-7), "middles" (ages 8-12), and teens (ages 13-18) or adults to provide comfort and support through structured "talking circle" questions and activities.
Volunteers do not need previous experience, just a love of children and a desire to help. This group is in Vail and runs weekly for 9 weeks for one evening per week. Each session lasts approximately 3 and one half hours per evening.
Volunteers must meet with our Volunteer Coordinator and attend a one-day training to equip them with the skills to excel, prior to being placed in this group.
