Volunteers are needed at the center in Niceville, or they can help in other ways, such as at community events.
According to Ana Michalznik, ECCA Volunteer and Event Coordinator, the event will not only provide a guided tour of the center but also offer a unique opportunity to learn about the impactful work being done in the community. You’ll also get to know more from ECCA’s therapists, advocates, and prevention team.
“There are a variety of volunteer opportunities,” said Ms Michalznik.
“It promises to be an enlightening evening, complete with light refreshments. We believe when we all work together, anything is possible to help us restore childhood joy and hope for their futures.”
