Volunteers are needed to help with planning, preparation, and execution of the events. Volunteers will work with the Program Coordinator to carry out the event for participants.
Volunteers will need to fill out a profile, and background check forms prior to volunteering. Volunteers need to be able to maintain confidentiality, have effect communication and interpersonal skills, be comfortable with grief-related discussion and activities, be personable, friendly and reliable.

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.
