EveryStep Grief & Loss Services, Home of Amanda the Panda offers grief peer-support programming for adults and children who have experienced the loss of a loved one. Sometimes we have individuals who come to us and English isn't their primary language. We would love to be able to still provide services to them; that's where you come in! We could use interpreters who would be willing to attend our support groups or camp to help our participants.
Support Groups are held four times a year for six week sessions, each Monday night from 5:45-7:30pm, and Camp is held twice a year over a weekend.
Volunteers should be fluent in another language and preferably have a certification/training in professional interpretation. Volunteers will need to provide a volunteer profile, and pass a background check.
If you are interested in helping interpret for our clients, please email info@amandathepanda.org.

Mission Statement
We empower individuals, support families and strengthen communities.
Description
EveryStep, formerly known as HCI Care Services & Visiting Nurse Services of Iowa, has been offering care and support for Iowans for many decades.
Our roots date back to 1908, when a group of nurses saw the need for public health nursing in Des Moines and founded an organization to fulfill that mission.
Since then, EveryStep has led the charge to address a wide variety of vital community health care and social service needs, offering prenatal support and home visits to new moms, assistance to immigrants and refugees, compassionate hospice and home care services, and grief and loss support.
Today, EveryStep has a strong reputation and a long history of serving vulnerable populations to help them live their best lives. Today, the non-profit’s 30 plus programs, more than 370 employees and nearly 900 volunteers offer care and support to Iowans in 47 counties.
