Help Us Build a More Connected Community

Little Oaks Center for Neurodevelopment is building a welcoming, community-centered organization where neurodivergent individuals, families, caregivers, and professionals can find support, trusted resources, and meaningful connection. We believe no one should have to navigate this journey alone.

As a growing nonprofit, volunteers are an important part of how we build community, expand our reach, and bring this vision to life. Whether you're passionate about community engagement, events, program support, communications, research, or behind-the-scenes operations, we'd love to learn more about you.

We know every volunteer brings different experiences, skills, and perspectives. Rather than fitting everyone into the same role, we work to match volunteers with opportunities that align with their interests, strengths, and availability.

We warmly welcome volunteers with professional experience, lived experience, or both. Whether you're a parent, caregiver, neurodivergent individual, family member, educator, clinician, student, or someone who simply believes in creating more inclusive communities, we'd love to learn more about you.
