Volunteering in your community is not only fulfilling, it’s an essential part of discovering new skills and abilities that can lead to employment options in the future. Community Connections, a program offered in Arc GLOW’s southern region, provides valuable volunteer opportunities at local organizations to help individuals learn and practice important workforce skills such as:
Safety
Problem-solving
Work habits and attitudes
Job requirements
And more
Whether it’s working in an office setting, offering food assistance or helping animal organizations in need, Community Connections will help match you to a fulfilling volunteer opportunity right in your own community. Our services provide your loved one with the tools to take on new opportunities, discover new abilities and gain independence.
“At Community Connections, we figure out what our individuals want to do for a job, and then what skills they will need to do that job. We then identify real work opportunities where they can practice and improve those skills.”
