Volunteering
Give the greatest gift of all…. your time.
Why CARI needs Volunteers:
CARI provided over 2,800 hours of therapy services to children, teenagers and families affected by child sexual abuse last year. We provide child-centred therapies to help children explore their feelings and develop a healthy way of coping with them. Children can talk to a counsellor and/or use paint, clay and toys to express themselves.
But in order to maintain and extend our vital therapy services, we need the help of volunteers like you.
