Volunteer Opportunities

Across our region, individuals, educational institutions and businesses recognize the value of volunteering with WeAchieve. Here is an opportunity to gain experience, grow and connect, while making a real contribution to the lives of those we serve.

WeAchieve volunteer activities include virtual and in-person opportunities at day programs, residential houses and administrative offices. We welcome the abilities and enthusiasm of those who are employed, retirees, students, interns and homemakers — all who have time and talent to contribute. Let’s explore which opportunities work best for you.

“I really didn’t know what to expect, but it turned out to be an amazing experience….
My clients gave me a very different perspective that has been life changing for me.”

— MONTGOMERY COLLEGE MENTAL HEALTH INTERN ELLEN TEMBO
