TAGLIT:
Enriching lives for a better community
We connect young adults in our Taglit
program with volunteer options that match
their interests and abilities. We have made
community partnerships with Adopt-A- Park,
Beads of courage, Ben’s Bell, Casa de Los
Ninos Thrift Store, Evolve Martial Arts, and
Unscrewed Theatre. Our participants enjoy
volunteering both out in the community
and at The J. You might see our participants
helping out at the MRC desk or in one of
our ECE classrooms. Our participants are
supported by highly-trained advocates
dedicated to helping them succeed in their
chosen volunteering. These opportunities
will help our participants gain important
skills for work readiness. If you would like to
learn more about our Taglit program, you can
contact or Director of Special Needs Services
at [email protected].
