    Description

    We are looking for individuals who can provide supervision and nurturing care and mentoring for urban youth (ages: birth - 14 yrs).

    Volunteers will supervise kids in addition to facilitating crafts, games, and other academically infused life skills activities while their mom's attend Life Skills Classes, which is on Monday evenings from 6:00 pm-7:30 pm. Arrival time for volunteers is 5:30 p.m. for instruction and to prepare for the children's arrival.

    We need volunteers to assist staff in implementing our programming designed to help develop hope and resiliency in the children who are experiencing homelessness that we serve in our Transitions Program.

    Volunteers for the Youth Program may attend every Monday evening or commit to only one Monday each month. We ask that volunteers come at least once a month to maintain consistency for the children.
