Trinity Community Minsitries

We are looking for volunteers to help with our Literacy Initiative and Computer 101 programs. Volunteers would be paired one on one with men in our program to develop a plan to teach basic literacy and computer skills. Hours are flexible and ongoing.

We are also looking for volunteers to "Create an Opportunity". In this program we encourage volunteers to plan a social activity such as a sporting event, a cooking class, or anything you can imagine. We will then assist you in making the outing happen.

Tutor Children with Special Needs

The Orion School

Orion is a small school that specializes in teaching complex students who have social and emotional challenges, including Asperger's and ADHD. We offer a strength based and supportive alternative school for our students. Our teacher to student ratio is a low 1:4 in classes of four students. We need volunteers to help in both the classroom and the office.

No previous experience necessary, but a willingness and interest to help students with special needs.

Volunteers must be physically able to work with very active and impulsive students, be willing to provide 3 references and give recent background check.

*We ask that all volunteers commit to a minimum of 2 hours per week the same day and time each week for the remainder of the semester that they start volunteering. This consistency is necessary for our students.
