Volunteer
Volunteers are always welcome and are greatly appreciated. Most often volunteers assist in the play area and help to provide a safe, calming and comfortable environment. They make sure the children don’t wander, are fairly quiet and do not run, eat or drink anywhere in the Children’s Center unless supervised by a clinician. Volunteers represent the Barbara Sinatra Children’s Center, and represent caring, concerned adults.
