Intern; Full time & Part time
Pediatric Occupational Therapy Services (POTS) provides therapeutic programs that empower children to maximize their potential through cutting edge occupational, physical, and speech therapy.
Our volunteer program at POTS provides opportunities to learn about working with children with sensory needs. Some volunteer responsibilities include prepping sessions, cleaning up, working on projects, and providing help for therapists to create a fun and welcoming experience for children.
Volunteers must be available 15 hours per week for a minimum of 3 months to request signed volunteer/observation forms. We prioritize accepting volunteers who can meet these requirements; however, we may need short term volunteers for camps and similar programs.
