Volunteers of America Oregon: Use your Spanish skills to support a young child
Posted by hannah.cherry
Our Family Relief Nursery, a child abuse prevention program, is seeking a bilingual volunteer to assist in our trauma-informed preschool. We support at risk families and help keep their families together and kids on track for school. Volunteers are essential for engaging children in play, games, art, and more. You’ll also provide valuable connection with our Spanish speaking families and get hands on experience in child development.
Opportunities are available M-Th from 9:30 am-12:30 pm at our East Family Relief Nursery at 2609 SE 136th Ave Portland. We ask volunteers to commit to a weekly shift for at least 6 months. Families are in our program for 12-18 months, so you’ll really form close bonds.
