    Description

    Volunteer as a Group Mentor with an Adult with Developmental Disabilities

    Kainos is looking for volunteers who want to get to know and spend time with an adult with an intellectual or developmental disability. Each year, our over 75 clients are paired with a volunteer mentor from the community. Over the course of the summer, the mentor and mentee spend time together at social events that are organized by Kainos. They get to know each other and become friends! This is a low commitment, high reward experience!

    Dates will be between June and September and we will have the specific information in April. Reach out to get on our list and we will contact you then. Thank you!
