St. Mary's Hospital for Children is seeking 25 adult volunteers who are available one morning each week to assist with our Medical Day Health Care/Young Adult Program.
The Young Adult Program is offered Monday-Friday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. This innovative program is for young adults from 18-30 years of age who have special needs and provides them with therapeutic and rehabilitation service focusing on life skills and improving independence in the community and overall quality of life. This group participates in a variety of supervised activities designed to promote their skills, confidence, and independence in a nurturing and fun environment.
Please join us for a morning session or for three hours if that better fits your schedule. This is an ongoing volunteer opportunity open to adults who can commit to work with our participants for at least 6 months. Many of our volunteers have worked with us for years! Please note that for all volunteer opportunities at St. Mary's there is an application process that includes a medical clearance completed by your physician, an orientation class and ongoing training.
