Minnesota Life College is an award-winning non-profit with a twenty year history of providing in-depth transitional education to those with autism spectrum disorders or learning differences. Using a hands-on Real Skills for Real Life(tm) curriculum, students age 18 and up live and learn together to build an independent, productive, engaged adult life. Our students and graduates thrive and are valued in the community.
We are looking for volunteers to assist with our vegetable gardens, planting flowers, and overall courtyard maintainence, throughout the summer months. To start, we would like to schedule a few 4 hour shifts, to get everything planted and ready to go. Then we would be looking for 3-5 hours per week for watering and weeding of the gardens. This is a unique opportunity to work closely with our student volunteers on campus.

We believe our students can live independent, self-sufficient, whole lives. Having learned the skills to open doors previously closed to them, the future of our students are limitless. We are not simply a three-year experience; we are a lifelong partner to an individual who learns differently.
