Diversity is celebrated, individual choices are honored, and everyone experiences joy.

Build community: Warmly welcome participants, spark conversations, and model inclusive, respectful social interactions.
-
Keep the energy positive: Help explain game rules, encourage participation at everyone's own comfort level, and foster a joyful environment.

A genuine interest in working with neurodivergent adults and adolescents.
-
A friendly, patient, dependable, and team-oriented attitude.

Comfort participating in group games, crafts, and community events.

Role Boundaries & Safety
Your safety and the safety of our participants are our top priorities. Volunteers always work under the direct presence and oversight of the Program Manager or designated staff. Volunteers do not provide personal care, medical assistance, therapy, or direct behavioral interventions.
