Employment & Volunteer Opportunities

College Coaches

College Coaches are undergraduate students who work an average of 15–20 hours per week. Their responsibilities include supporting students in the classroom, assisting with outside activities, and helping individuals develop skills for independent living. Outside activities may involve organizing social or wellness events and coaching students in daily life skills.

Each College Coach is assigned to a specific student and serves as their primary point of contact ("GO TO" person). However, they also provide support to other students as needed throughout the week.

Spring 2025 College Coach Applications: Applications are currently closed and will reopen at the end of each semester.

Peer Mentors

Peer Mentors are undergraduate student volunteers who spend at least one hour per week with an assigned student. Each mentor takes on a specific role, which may include:

  • Academic Mentor – Assists with coursework and study strategies.
  • Meal/Cooking Mentor – Helps students develop cooking and meal-planning skills.
  • Life Skills Mentor – Supports students in building essential daily living skills.
  • Wellness/Exercising Mentor – Encourages and participates in physical activities.
  • Social Mentor – Helps students engage in social interactions and activities.

While mentors have a primary role, they often assist in multiple areas based on the student’s needs. Assignments are made based on schedule availability and shared interests to foster strong connections.
