The National Ability Center is always seeking qualified volunteers to help with its program and administrative needs. The center holds volunteer trainings on a regular basis as well. To protect the safety of participants, background checks are required for all volunteers ages 18+.
Volunteers may assist participants in doing recreational activities. Some of the programs offered are skiing and snowboarding, aquatics, horseback riding, archery, cycling, and paddle sports.
At the National Ability Center I taught swim and ski lessons to children and people with cognitive disabilities. Most of the volunteer work I did was very hands on. I would have to hold some of the children in the water to support them while swimming and I would also help them perform certain strokes. I value the relationships I formed with the students I taught. The students taught me a lot about certain disabilities and how easy it is to make friends and be nice to others. - Tess Holbrook, Park City, Utah
