Volunteer: Continuing Education Instructor in need of Assistant

Education Is a Key to Success, Continuing Education Instructor In Need Of Assistants

DESC has assisted hundreds of individuals obtain employment as their primary path out of homelessness and toward greater stability through two distinct programs: Supported Employment Program and continuing education classes.

Below is a description of the continuing education program offered to DESC clients and the commitment needed from a volunteer assistant.

1. The class is for a wide range of abilities. Most students enter at very basic levels. This is not an ESL class but some non-native speakers, with no better options available, have spent time in the class and have coped well.

2. Clients join for a wide range of reasons including using time productively, self-improvement, gaining employment skills, gaining a GED or preparing for college interest admission tests.

3. Students do not need to commit to an attendance level. 

4. Classes are free. 

5. Monday and Tuesday from 8:30am-10:30am at the DESC's Gateway in Honor of Tenaya Wright.

We are still requiring masks in all client areas so masking is required for this particular volunteer opportunity. Must be vaccinated for Covid-19 or have a compelling reason not to be.

Volunteer: Clothing Closet Captain at 216 James

Like to organize and keep things tidy? We could use your help!  Many of DESC's programs have a resource closet.  We need your help in maintaining and upkeeping the items and making sure they are available for staff to give to clients in need.  This position will include performing a weekly inventory of clothing and other resources, partnering with staff about needs then communicating those needs to the donation center.

This position has limited interaction with clients and is more organizational in nature.  This opportunity is at our 216 James Clinic and the Lew Middleton Drop In Center in downtown Seattle.  The Lew Middleton Drop-In Center was started by Washington state’s longest-standing Certified Peer Counselor, Lew Middleton Jr. Since 1994, the center is and continuously aims to be a safe space for an incredibly special and diverse population. The center is staffed and operated by a team of Certified Peer Specialists, who receive intensive clinical training in order to best serve the community and provide recovery-oriented services.

Many of those we serve, have low to no income so these supplies are essential at ensuring their well being.

Frequency in most cases would be weekly and schedule is flexible depending on volunteer schedule and location needs/abilities.

All volunteers must be fully vaccinated against COVID and adhere to any required safety guidelines. Submission of proof of vaccination is required and masking is still mandatory in our locations. Must be over 18 and complete a background check. We ask for a commitment of at least 6 months.

Volunteer: Alpha Supported Living Services is asking for In-kind donations to keep our clients and staff safe in their homes

Right now, our main challenge is finding the necessary personal protective equipment, cleaning supplies and other supplies necessary to serve our clients and the staff in their homes. As people continue to deplete the stock in the stores, we are trying to secure gloves, gowns, masks, goggles, disinfecting wipes and sprays, bleach, hand sanitizer, hand soap, paper towels and other supplies necessary to properly disinfect the homes and provide protection for our staff and the individuals we support. There is a lack of resources, so we are worried that our current supply will not last throughout this crisis.  

Unlike other businesses, we can’t follow the recommendations from the CDC and Department of Health and have our staff work from home. Our staff provide 24-7 care in the homes to the individuals we support, so we need to continue to provide staffing in the homes. 

Specific items we are in need of currently are:

Hand Sanitizer

Disinfecting Spray

N-95 Masks

Grocery Store Gift Cards for our clients

Our staff have been very creative at finding sources of PPE and other necessary products but when we find them we must act fast. Monetary donations are gladly accepted to go directly to our COVID19 response. 

 

You can mail your donations to:

Alpha Supported Living Services

16030 Juanita Woodinville Way NE

Bothell, WA  98011 or go directly to our website 

www.alphasls.org

 

Our office is closed to visitors and volunteers, please contact Dave Bushnell at dbushnell@alphasls.org if you have any questions in regards to your donation.

 

Thank you so much for helping us!
