Volunteer with a Child for the Day!

Join Easterseals Respite Services to give parents a break from day-to-day caregiving duties. We work with military, civilian, and Wounded Warrior families who have children with & without disabilities. As a volunteer, you would spend the day with a child during In-Center activities.

The next respite event is Saturday, February 14th from 8:30am to 1:00pm.

In-Center Respite-

We provide fun and educational activities between volunteers and the children and their siblings at the Easter Seals Inter-Generational Center in downtown Silver Spring one Saturday a month. Here the children will be able to unleash their imagination in a world of hands-on discovery with painting, drawing, sculpting, and other imaginative activities.

The respite services are a wonderful event for everyone involved! You and your matched child for the day will have a fabulous time and enjoy all the fun activities. We hope to see you on the next trip.
