Application Timeframe/Process: You can join at any time during the school year or Summer! We do have a full-club meeting at the beginning of each semester, though, so it may be beneficial to sign up around then to see what we have to offer! Contacting our club email (adaptiveabilities@gmail.com) or one of our eboard members is an easy way to get involved!
Time Commitment: There are no “required” hours with this club, you are able to sign up for as many or as little events as you feel comfortable with. A typical event is usually a few hours if you were to sign up. Additionally, some of our events require a separate training session, so based on the event more dedicated hours may be involved.
Benefit: Connecting with volunteers and participants alike, along with getting hands-on experience with a variety of diagnoses across the lifespan. This is also great exposure to adaptive equipment and the communication skills required to effectively support each participant. Lastly, the hours spent volunteering with Adaptive Abilities can develop transferable skills to one’s future career in healthcare!
