Amanda the Panda offers six-week grief Support Groups, four times a year, for adults and youth who have experienced the loss of a loved one. During Support Group, we offer childcare for infants through preschool-aged children who are not able to participate in programming.
In order to provide this service we rely on volunteers. Volunteers help provide the childcare by caring for, playing with, and interacting with the children while their parent/guardian is in Support Group. Support Groups are held on Monday nights for six weeks at a time.
Volunteers should be comfortable caring for and playing with infant-preschool aged children onsite in our designated Childcare room.
If you are interested in volunteering as a childcare provider during our Support Groups, please email Megan at mmondt@everystep.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.
