We’re looking for volunteers to help during our Day Respite “Social Clubs.” The respite rooms are open from 9 AM – 3 PM and include crafts, music, exercise, games and social engagement. Weekday availability required!
Volunteers assist guests with mild to moderate dementia in a group day care setting one day a week between 9:00am – 3:00pm for a minimum of 2 hours a week. Volunteers are supervised by the Day Respite Coordinator. Activities include singing, arts & crafts, puzzles, scrapbooking, seated exercises, bingo, and much more. We have opportunities for this position in Leon, Gulf, Wakulla, and Gadsden counties.
Volunteers must attend a training session where you learn about communicating with someone with dementia as well as other volunteer opportunities that may interest you.
