Why volunteer?
Volunteering at York-Durham Aphasia Centre is an opportunity to get involved and gain valuable experience working and supporting those with communication loss and disability. Volunteers are valued in our program by clients, their families and our staff because they are the ones that actually make things happen!
“Volunteers are not just doing the ‘busy’ work of the agency but are trained and capable of delivering the program to clients. What I appreciate about York-Durham Aphasia Centre is the recognition of the vital roles volunteers play in the agency; they are partners trained to help our clients improve communication. As long as this continues, these programs will succeed.”
