Supported Volunteer Placements

Content

Inclusion is a natural goal for everyone – and that includes people with disabilities.

You have the power to make a meaningful difference in the life of someone who is deafblind, as well as those living with a developmental disability who are Deaf, hard of hearing or use non-traditional forms of communication.

By offering a volunteer placement for just 1–2 hours per week at your place of business, you create opportunities for connection and contribution. Each individual is fully supported in their role to ensure a positive experience for both your business and the volunteer.
