Bay Cove Human Services
Ways to help | Board of AdvocatesThe Bay Cove Board of Advocates is a volunteer group that plays a critical role in the success of our agency. The Board of Advocates was envisioned as a group of individuals—knowledgeable about and supportive of Bay Cove’s programs and services—who could help increase the agency’s viability and visibility in the community-at-large.Landscaping, Painting, Cooking, etcSample volunteer projects include: landscaping and yard clean-up at one of our 175 programs, interior painting at one of our many residential or day programs, or cooking with CASPAR (prepare and serve a meal to guests at our homeless shelter in Cambridge).Young Professional AdvocatesThe Young Professional Advocates are a group of people 21-35 years of age who are interested in meeting other socially-minded individuals. This group’s philosophy is that charity does not have to feel like an obligation. Their meetings are productive but also fun, often taking place at a bowling alley or over a pizza party.Human Rights CommitteeThe Bay Cove Human Rights Committee is looking for nurses, masters' level behavioral specialists, and attorney law students or paralegals. This external committee helps Bay Cove monitor and review our Human Rights program through monthly meetings (with a break during the summer), and visits to our programs. We provide an orientation upon joining, as well as ongoing training and support. |
