Our Approach

At The Children's Institute, volunteers play a vital role in all of our programs. We are proud of the individuals who choose to give their time and abilities to help others. The hours they contribute and the help they provide are an amazing gift to The Children’s Institute’s children and their families.

Importance of “The Match”

Because our volunteers are so valuable, we take the time to carefully match their needs and skills with available positions. Volunteers may interact with children, families, therapists, and teachers. Because we are focused on rehabilitation, most of our children are not as medically dependent or fragile as those in an acute care setting. Because of this, at The Children’s Institute volunteers enjoy more direct contact with children than they may experience in other settings.
