The Douglas Center: Reading Assistance Volunteers

About this Opportunity

If you are in school to become a teacher or just enjoy helping people improve their reading skills, this is for you! Many clients at The Douglas Center are at lower reading levels and would like to improve their reading ability or just practice reading.

You will work under the guidance and supervision of a trained staff member. This volunteer service can be done during the hours of 9:00 am and 2:00 pm, Monday through Friday and requires a minimum 60 hour commitment. If you are a college student and need Service Hours, you can choose to do a short-term volunteer commitment. If you are looking for a rewarding volunteer opportunity, please contact Elizabeth C. Kristiansen via email: ekristiansen@thedouglascenter.org or phone: 847-674-1921.
