Special Needs Child Companion Adults 55+
Last updated on October 13, 2008

The child companion volunteer works one on one with medically fragile and disabled children to provide comfort and companionship. Interaction is aimed at decreasing isolation and increasing stimulation. Examples of duties include visiting, reading, sensory stimulation, playing, art, music, etc. The goal is to enhance the child's quality of life. Your time with them makes an incredible difference.

Sensitivity to medically fragile children, ability to speak English, creativity, positive attitude, compassion, patience, ability to work independently, and good communication are key.
