NOT CURRENTLY ACCEPTING VOLUNTEERS. The Carmen B. Pingree Autism Center of Learning specializes in skill and behavioral development for children on the autism spectrum and co-occurring disorders. The program focuses on aiding students in the areas of language, cognition and social development; behavior management, and academic and pre-vocational skills. The Center is operated by Valley Behavioral Health and serves students throughout the Salt Lake Valley and adjacent counties.
Volunteers will support youth grades preschool through secondary. Children are taught behavioral modification skills, speech and language development, academic/cognitive concepts and attention skills.
I have always loved working with kids and this was a perfect opportunity. This experience has taught me to be patient and understanding of differences. - Elysha Davis, Salt Lake City, UT

Pingree is a wonderful organization!! You can see that all of the kids are so happy to be there and they enjoy learning. Everyone is so nice and understanding and all of the teachers really care for each student. They are very flexible with schedules if you are volunteering. When I go and volunteer it is such a rewarding experience!
