The Childrens Center, located in Salt Lake and Kearns, provides mental health care for emotionally and behaviorally disturbed infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and their families. A clinical staff evaluates the needs of the family and they receive services on a sliding fee scale.
There are two volunteers assigned to a class of eight children. Volunteers usually attend one session a week but are encouraged to come as frequently as theyd like. They provide entertainment, play games, do arts and crafts, and read with the children of the preschool.
I first started just working in child care twice a week. It was so much fun to just play with the kids.Then I moved on to working in therapeutic preschool and I felt as if I had advanced in a level at the center. I work in a preschool class of ten boys with two teachers and it's always pretty intense, exciting and especially gratifying. - Janey Lyon, Salt Lake City, Utah
