Volunteers are needed throughout The Door’s programs to help us fulfill our mission, touching the lives of nearly 10,000 participants every year. There are many different ways that you can help, whether you have only a few hours to spare or can make a longer-term commitment to ongoing work. Here are just some of the many volunteer opportunities currently available; we are always open to your ideas and suggestions.

Volunteer opportunities are available Monday through Friday from 9AM until 8PM with young people ages 12-21. We ask that volunteers commit to at least 3 hours per week — either in a block of 3 hours or two 1.5 hours blocks.
