Volunteering

ErinoakKids offers our volunteers opportunities to gain new skills, interact with our clients, meet new people and have fun.

During the school year, volunteers assist in therapeutic services through the day; participate in evening and weekend services, special events and day-to-day administration. During the summer months, volunteers may assist with therapeutic or recreational camps, multidisciplinary services and administrative support as well as ErinoakKids fundraising activities.

ErinoakKids Volunteer Services recruits, screens and selects qualified and caring individuals from our community. Volunteers are integral members of our team and work collaboratively with staff to augment, not replace, services provided by staff. Volunteers share their talents and abilities to enhance the quality and quantity of services provided to our clients and their families.

Volunteers are treated with professionalism and respect. They are provided with orientation and guidance to perform well in their role at ErinoakKids and to get the most out of their volunteering experience.

For details on student programs (e.g. Occupational Therapy students, Social Work students, etc.), please visit our student placements page.
