How You Can Help

​

Volunteers are the heart of the Wooten Center. They help provide the individualized and quality care and supervision we want for our students, helping with programs, administration, fundraising, communications, and facilities.
​

Volunteers are always wanted to serve as private tutors, sports coaches, guest mentors, technology specialists, office assistants, food servers, and more. Whatever your availability--once, periodically, or ongoing--there is a place for you. 

Thank you for your interest and for your application if you're ready to serve! Click on the opportunities and orientation buttons below for more information on volunteering at the Wooten Center. Click on the Checklist button below for more information on the steps to become a volunteer.

Ongoing Volunteers

​​​

For ongoing volunteers like tutors, onboarding consists of three steps: Interview, Orientation, and Checks (background, child abuse, reference). The checks will be conducted by the center at no cost.
 

Tutors will also complete a brief teaching demonstration and training as part of the interview and orientation. Onboarding for tutors takes about two or more weeks as we conduct background and reference checks, working to ensure a safe and nurturing environment for our students.
