Opportunities

Volunteers actively engage with children of all ages in the RCCAC waiting room. Games, books, crafts, and toys are available to help keep children entertained until they can be seen for their appointment. When needs have been met in the waiting room, volunteers help to support other valuable tasks as determined by staff.

Through volunteering at the RCCAC, volunteers will gain experience in supervising a diverse population of children. Volunteers will also benefit from observation of staff at the RCCAC and help to support pertinent tasks for the clinic.
