WAYS TO HELP

Volunteer Opportunities That Make a Difference

  • Event Support Volunteers

    Help at developmental screening events by assisting with setup, organizing materials, and preparing activity bags for children. These bags provide comfort and engagement for children while families move through screening stations.

  • Corporate and Group Volunteering

    Corporate teams can support large-scale projects such as assembling materials for programs or helping organize and distribute holiday gift packages for families in need through the Emergency Needs Program.

  • Translator Volunteers

    Bilingual volunteers play a critical role in helping families access services. Translators support communication between families and providers, helping ensure families can fully understand and participate in programs. Languages in demand include Spanish, Vietnamese, Farsi, and Chinese.

  • Skills-Based Volunteering

    Volunteers with professional skills can support areas such as marketing, photography, videography, communications, outreach, and administrative support. These opportunities are flexible and can be ongoing.
