Volunteers

What do a dancer, a tree-hugger, and a crocheting grandmother have in common? They are all ILS volunteers! Volunteers play a varied and vital role at ILS. Volunteers find that spending even a short time with a person with a disability can help both of them to thrive.

We are looking for volunteers to help mentor our consumers and teach them self advocacy skills.
