Come Volunteer With Us
Mentoring has been shown to be successful. Some of our longer-term residents are here simply because there is nowhere else for them to go. These children desperately need individual attention and strong role models. Volunteers can determine their own time commitment.
Open Door may fulfill required services hours for your school or work upon request.
