The Arc thrives
on the contributions of our many volunteers. Currently,
there are several opportunities available for those
wishing to give of their time. Please call 908-725-8544
for information.
BE A BUDDY!
Many of our adult
consumers have limited visits from family and friends
to their residence at an Arc apartment or group home.
As a buddy, you would be matched with one person and
establish a regular visitation schedule, as often as
you wish - once a week, once a month - we will help
to define a time that works for you and your buddy.
Formal activities do not have to be planned - just spending
time will make all the difference! Read, take a walk,
give a manicure, listen to music - just be a friend.
Residents of our programs live in group homes and apartments
throughout the county.
WORK
CENTER ASSISTANTS
Assist
consumers working at work-centers. Centers develop contracts
with local corporations - including collating, assembling
and mailing. Volunteers are needed to help individual
consumers to do their jobs! Hours are extremely flexible
and work centers are located throughout the county.
CHILDHOOD PROGRAM
AIDES
We have two programs for
children with developmental disabilities beyond the
school day: the After School Program that runs Monday
through Friday from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. and our Saturday
Respite Program from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. There are
staff present at all times in these programs, but more
hands would help!
