Opportunities From: Volunteer Center of Racine County, Inc.

Advocate: Community Activists

We always need people who will be willing to write to legislators to get them to author a bill to help protect abused children. At any point, there will be an issue to push in some direction or another. After getting legislator support, then pass around a petition to urge said member and other legislators to support this bill.

During times that we are not pushing for legislation, we will continue to work on the same issues with Law Enforcement officers, attornies, judges, and other community officials, including school administrators to educate them on the burdens survivors of abuse endure for a life time, and to ensure that those who abuse our children get stiffer punishment than a slap on the wrist. Often, these same people will need to also learn about the signs and symptoms of abuse.

We need one person to be a board member and others to fill out the team for a small committee. Those who work with children as teachers, caregivers, tutors, etc encouraged to come serve with us. Those who are also disabled is also encouraged, to share information about how we can better serve our abused disabled children.

Volunteer: Senior Medicare Patrol Volunteer

SMP volunteers are concerned citizens (often retired professionals) who empower seniors to prevent healthcare fraud through outreach and education. SMP volunteers make presentations to groups and/or distribute materials at community events to educate Medicare beneficiaries, caregivers, and professionals how to prevent, detect, and report healthcare fraud.

Most volunteers commit between 2-5 hours each month to the SMP program. Generally, volunteer duties fall into one of the following two categories: speaking to Medicare beneficiaries about fraud OR working an SMP table (answering questions about SMP, disseminating brochures about Medicare fraud) at a senior-related health fair. Additionally, some SMP volunteers help write press releases, help with office administration, and assist other SMP volunteers in scheduling their presentations.

All SMP volunteers must complete the SMP Foundations Training before beginning to volunteer with the project. Additionally, supplementary training is available to SMP volunteers on an on-going basis.

You are encouraged to continue meeting with your neighbors in ways that work best for you, such as an annual National Night Out event, and occasional informal meetings in a home or yard on the block. Residents active with block watch have seen crime problems diminish and their quality of life improve because they know how and where to report problems, and work with each other for positive attitudes and cooperation among neighbors on the block. This volunteer opportunity is limited to City of Racine residents. We provide the necessary training at the startup meeting and any additional assistance as needed.

Volunteer: SERVERS FOR MONDAY HOT MEAL

As a volunteer for this service you are helping to keep this program going which provides a hot meal on Monday nights for those who are in need. In many cases this is the only meal these guests get the whole day and the only way this program continues is through the efforts of all the volunteers.

My volunteers need to be willing to serve and clean. The cleaning involves wiping up tables and sweeping the floors and packing up food for the patrons to take home. Serving involves pouring water, milk and coffee and assisting
