We are a non-profit organization in Thousand Oaks that provides services for children and young adults with disabilities. We are primarily looking for volunteers with an interest in marketing and advertising. We want volunteers who are looking to develop a program to gain exposure and leverage for Center4SpecialNeeds. There are two tracks for this volunteer opportunity: Social Media and Website Development.
For those volunteers who have skills in Social Media, there is an opportunity to increase the social media presence of Center4SpecialNeeds.
The Website Development internship involves work on the development of our website center4specialneeds.org that is through Shopify.
We are flexible in scheduling volunteers. We are happy to provide volunteers with a letter of recommendation, and this opportunity would look good on a resume. Call 805-379-1681 or email center4specialneeds@gmail.com with a resume and your availability for the internship.

Description
Center4SpecialNeeds is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation founded in 2011. It was established to provide resources, education, and offer a variety of supports for families who have children with special needs / developmental disabilities in Ventura County, California. Towards the end of 2016, we have updated our bylaws to include children ages 2-16 and young adults. Also, we expanded our outreach to not only cover Ventura County, but to cover Los Angeles County, Orange County, and Santa Barbara County. In addition, in the beginning of 2017, we will be providing direct services including social skills programs and social & educational opportunities for children and young adults.
Center4SpecialNeeds is a parent-founded organization comprised of a team of people who are all touched in some way with a child with special needs. Each person offers their own valuable insight, experience and abilities to the organization, thereby insuring that a well-rounded perspective is maintained on all special needs matters.
Our purpose is to build a foundation-eventually a multi-disciplinary center-that bridges the gap for those children who fall between the cracks; the children who have developmental disabilities and do not qualify for regional center services and are not covered by insurance. We will enable parents to provide their children with the necessary treatments and interventions they require and deserve to reach their full potential.
