Every other month, Eugene Science Center puts on a special Sensory Sensitive Night for anyone who may have a sensory processing disorder or falls on the autism spectrum. During this event, we are closed to the general public and provide various interactive activities specifically for these kids and families. We need volunteers to help with set-up/take-down and staffing Exhibit Hall activities. Prior experience working with children with disabilities is not required.

Currently there are no Sensory Sensitive Nights on the calendar, but let us know if you would be interested in helping out with one in the future!

Required: All volunteers must attend a mandatory training session, as well as complete either a background check (for volunteers 18+) or reference check (for volunteers under 18 years old), before they can work any shifts. Let us know if you’re interested in this position and the volunteer coordinator will let you know when the next training session has been scheduled.
