Descripción
The Ivey is seeking compassionate, energetic volunteers to support our new Parkinson’s Power Program, a dynamic wellness and enrichment program for individuals living with Parkinson’s disease and the caregivers who support them.
Parkinson’s Power combines movement, cognitive engagement, education, social connection, and evidence-informed programming in a welcoming and uplifting environment.
This is not a clinical volunteer role — it is a people-centered opportunity to encourage, engage, and support participants as they work toward staying stronger, safer, more confident, and connected.
Program Activities Include
- PWR! Moves®
- Rock Steady Boxing
- Tai Chi and Yoga for Parkinson’s
- Dance and Music Therapy
- SMARTfit dual-task cognitive training
- Educational workshops and support programming
Ideal Volunteers
We are looking for individuals who are:
- Kind, dependable, patient, and engaging
- Comfortable interacting with older adults
- Interested in wellness, movement, brain health, or community service
- Able to provide encouragement and social support
- Students in health sciences, therapy, nursing, social work, psychology, or exercise science are welcome — but no experience is required
