You'd be responsible for driving and assisting the small groups of up to a maximum of 15 people. 2) Training Center Our Training Center hosts students ages 18- end of life who have goals to either enter or re-enter the workforce. They come from all over the State of Maine and even outside of the State and stay in our Dorm for 2-22 weeks. On the weekends, when they have no classes, we would like to offer the opportunity for them to explore Maine! We are looking for a recreation volunteer to lend a hand with driving the bus, mentioned above, and being present on the outtings. If you are interested, please reach out! HR@theiris.org or 207-518-5034 and mentioned you'd like to volunteer!
