AdventurePlex Summer Camp Volunteers

Help our seniors get moving! MoveWell In-Home Exercise Volunteers Needed
Help our frailer community members become stronger and healthier, and contribute to increased independence by becoming a volunteer for the new MoveWell In-Home Exercise program. You'll be matched with a client t assist them with their tailored exercise plan. Under the supervision of the MoveWell specialist, volunteers will start out working with them in their homes, then begin following up via telephone. Ongoing training and supervision provided.

Friend to Friend Volunteers
Join this corps of volunteers providing weekly social visits to our isolated and homebound residents. You'll provide a missing and desperately needed link to the community. In many instances, Friend-to-Friend volunteers are the only outside contact our clients will have. Participate in an all-day training with professional staff on Saturday, April 24. Ongoing training and supervision provided.

Executive Volunteer Program
Give back to your community by volunteering your professional expertise on a project-specific basis. BCHD has many challenging, professional level projects where a subject-matter expert could greatly contribute!
