Volunteers to "man" the display of the Playhouse at different times in the summer at different venues in the Upper Valley
Puppeteers for Kids on the Block
Educational advocates to assist parents of children needing special educational services
Dartmouth College students to help with our Connections program - a big brother/big sister program for children with special needs
Dartmouth Medical School students to help with the Medical Buddies program, similar to the bb/bs program
Our Respite Program would welcome volunteers to provide respite care for parents "needing a break"
The SNSC Board of Directors is always on the look out for new members willing to provide leadership to our organization
Parent to Parent of NH is in need of Supporting Parents to be matched with "new" parents of children with special needs
Help maintain our Nathan Hall Library
Educational contacts with our state and national legislators, especially at certain times of the year, would be really helpful in trying to secure needed funding for services to families with children having special needs
