What to Expect 

HOW OFTEN WILL PARTICIPANTS VOLUNTEER?

Adult participants thrive with consistency. Typically we partner with organizations that can host our volunteers weekly or bi-weekly. Participants learn best, and can contribute the most when worksites are routine and there is time to make real connections with supervisors and other volunteers.

WHAT WILL BE MY ROLE IN TRAINING AND COMMUNICATING WITH VOLUNTEERS?

We encourage volunteer supervisors to speak directly to students, train them on the job and give them feedback. Ala Costa's staff support organizations to learn to communicate best with volunteers and help participants to problem solve, learn new skills, find ways to make accommodations so they can get the job done.

"Even though my son has been attending Ala Costa less than a year, I already cannot image our lives without it. Ala Costa is more than a program for my son’s afternoons. It is the support system I have always wished for, with staff that genuinely care, very deeply, about my son and our entire family"

– Jackie, Parent
