Volunteers Are The Heart Of Our Service
Volunteers are a vital resource to Harbor Regional Center, the
Resource Center, and to our community of families. Harbor
Regional Center offers a large variety of volunteer
opportunities. By joining the HRC volunteer program, you have the
opportunity to make new friends, develop social skills, and make
a direct contribution to protecting the rights and promoting the
interests of people with developmental disabilities.
We have Parent-to-Parent Support volunteers who assist families
in making the adjustment to the regional center and help in times
of transition. These gracious and knowledgeable parents also
write articles for our various publications, help with community
events, participate in or lead support groups, and help in the
resource library.
We have a wonderful group of adult client volunteers who assist
us in the resource library, help various teams with mailings, and
aid us at our community events. We offer training for new Parent
Mentor volunteers at least once a year, or more often if needed.
There are also opportunities for others from the community to
volunteer at Harbor Regional Center or in the HRC Resource
Center. We have had boy and girl scouts, high school and college
students working to fulfill volunteer requirements, as well as
interested community individuals who donate their time to assist
us in providing outstanding services for our clients and their
families. Your skills may be in fundraising, filing, handling
inventory, answering the telephone, or assisting us to maintain
up-to-date resource informtion in the Resource Center or on this
website. We can use them all.
