This is an open opportunity to work directly with some of our programs supporting individuals with mental health issues and disabilities. Locations VARY all over Arlington and opportunities are VERY flexible!!

We are currently looking for volunteers to work directly with the individuals we support by leading classes and skill building activities, such as exercise classes, art classes, culinary classes, book clubs, sign language classes, or unique skills and interests activities. If you have a special skill or interest let us know! We also have opportunities for groups to participate in service days and get involved with our programs.


This is a great way for volunteers to work towards a public service award. Volunteers will receive a public service award through the Volunteer Generation Fund for volunteering in the communities CR supports.
