Youth In Care (YIC) is a specialized program categorized under the Big Brothers Big Sisters Mentoring program. Volunteer mentors work specifically with youth in government care. Mentors share their time with a mentee through participating in a variety of activities that reflect the interests of both parties; it’s as simple as being a good friend to a young person. Mentors are matched with mentees with similar interests. Mentees are between the ages of 6-24.

The goal of YIC mentoring is to create healthy positive relationships for youth who may have experienced many transitions throughout their lives.
We believe it’s so important to be able to provide mentoring programs specifically for youth who have had involvement with Alberta Child and Family Services. Mentoring a youth in care has all the same impacts as mentoring through our other programs. Children with mentors experience incredible life benefits such as:

•Becoming 80% more likely to finish high school
•Increased confidence, self-esteem and sense of hope
•Less likely to engage in drugs and alcohol
•Improvement in relationships with adults and peers

The Life Enrichment team at Touchmark’s Health Services Neighborhood is looking for a weekend volunteer to run small group and one on one activities with seniors with dementia and different physical limitations.

Do you love horses? Do you love helping people? Little Bits Therapeutic Riding Association (LBTRA) needs volunteers to assist in our programing! LBTRA has been providing therapeutic riding to children and adults with disabilities since 1975. Each year we have over 195 riders take part in our programs. We are a charitable organization and are only able to run with the assistance of our amazing volunteers.
As a volunteer there are many roles you can take. During the one-hour classes, there are volunteers who lead the horses, and those who walk alongside and provide physical and/or cognitive support to the riders. These side walkers assist the rider in following the directions of the instructor, occasionally providing hand-over-hand assistance, or physical holds to help the rider remain balanced. Additionally, we may need some assistance in the barn collecting horses from their paddocks, grooming them, and tacking them for classes. No experience is needed to volunteer, just a willingness to learn!
A lot of our volunteers start with our organization for the horses, but the majority will say that they stay for the riders and for the environment with the other volunteers. Little Bits is a great place to get out, get some exercise, and meet lots of new people from all walks of life.
If you are interested in learning more about our organization, or would like to volunteer, please contact us at volunteers@littlebits.ca!
