We all want to belong yet people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) have less opportunities for social interaction and can feel more isolated. Bridge the gap and help people with I/DD find a place in their community.
What: Volunteers are matched with a person with I/DD and attend outings based on common interests- - examples could be going out to lunch or dinner, going to a sporting event, taking a class or going to a museum or festival. Groups keep the cost to $10-$15 per outing. Providing a ride for the person you are matched with is one more way you can be of service.
When: Evenings or weekends. Three to four hours once a month for a one year commitment. Many of our volunteers have enjoyed the friendships they’ve made and have continued volunteering long beyond that first year.
Where: In the community where you live.
Why: Satisfy yourself by helping others.
Meet new people.
Empower others.
How: Call us or send an email to learn more!
