ORGANIZATION: Lantern Community Services

  • 4 people are interested

Lantern Community Services is a non profit homeless services organization that champions the independence and well-being of New Yorkers who are formerly homeless or have recently aged out of foster care through supportive housing. Our programs - which have proven results in health, employment, education and life skills - are delivered inside our residences and tailored to each person’s needs.


Currently, Lantern is looking for people with experience tutoring and mentoring to help out some adults in our buildings who are studying for the National External Diploma Program (NEDP). Completing the NEDP is enormously important to starting a career and advancing one's life. Any help would be greatly appreciated! For this volunteer position, times outside of normal 9 to 5 business hours can be accommodated to a reasonable extent.
