As an agency, we put great value on our volunteers and provide them with a broad range of experiences across our agency. Volunteer opportunities are available working directly with youth and families, clerical, management information system, activities and much more. Aunt Martha's has an established reputation for providing excellent hands-on internships that will equip the intern with a primary focus on their particular area of study and a social service experience. Interns will work directly with clients and will be guided through the paperwork process. All interns will receive weekly supervision by a qualified staff person, training in Reality Therapy and an orientation to the agency.
Interns work in a variety of settings at the agency.
We believe that many young people can benefit from the broad knowledge and experiences that community people have to provide. Our mentors are trained in Reality Therapy and undergo Mentor Training before they are matched up with a youth. A relationship between the mentor and youth develops through shared activities. As a result of the deepening relationship, we believe our youth will begin to trust their mentor and begin to look at new and different ways in which to achieve their life goals.
