What days and times are you available to volunteer?
Please tell us which NEST Collaborative volunteer opportunities most interest you:
1. Provide one-to-one friendly calls to a list of assigned elders and/or adults living with disabilities.
2. Host virtual social connections for a small group of 2-5 elders and/or adults living with disabilities.
3. Provide telephone-based technical assistance to elders and/or adults living with disabilities via one-to-one coaching and mentoring. Serve as a resource for elders as they familiarize themselves with technology as a way to address their needs.
Please list one personal or professional reference.
Please provide a few sentences about yourself that we can give to the Participants you'll be serving, so that they can get to know you a bit before your first conversation! This information will also be shared with your Volunteer Guides (who will help to support you throughout your volunteer service) and the other Volunteers in your Volunteer cohort (i.e. the other Volunteers also being supposed by you Volunteer Guides)
Example, What are your hobbies? What are most passionate about? What is one of your hopes or dreams? Where do you call “home”?
