We need volunteers to help distribute Autism Speaks Walk posters and brochures into your community. The address listed is your starting point to collect materials and then from there you can start visiting places near you or places we assign to get the word out about the Nashville Autism Speaks Walk. This opportunity is great for people that need to work at their own pace independently as well as for those looking to volunteer as a group.
Please RSVP by reaching out to Kaitlyn at Kaitlyn.Morris@AutismSpeaks.org
