Why might people with IDD not get to volunteer sometimes:

Why people with IDD may not get to volunteer:

  • Some people think people with disabilities can only get help, not give help.

  • Volunteer leaders may not know how to support people with IDD.

  • There may not be enough staff to help volunteers with IDD.

  • Some volunteer places are not easy to use or enter for people with disabilities.

  • A person with IDD may need help with health needs while volunteering.

  • It can be hard to find a ride to the volunteer location.

  • People with IDD may not know how to ask to volunteer or where to find opportunities.

  • Some people with IDD may want a paid job instead of volunteering.

Why volunteering is important:

  • Volunteering helps people feel more confident.

  • It builds skills that can help with getting a job.

  • It gives real-life work experience.

  • It helps people make new friends and meet people who might help them find a job.

  • It creates support networks for the future.

  • Everyone should be encouraged to give back to their community.

  • When everyone gets involved, it helps both the person volunteering and the community.

  • Volunteering brings people together and strengthens communities. Yet, many IDD volunteers face barriers like lack of support, accessibility issues, or uncertainty about how to sign up. At Forever Care, we remove those roadblocks so everyone can give back.
