Cyprus Autism Association is looking for volunteers, male or female, closer to the age of 25 and above who preferably have some experience of Autism or Special Needs. The selection criteria for recruitment are dynamism, motivation, initiative and interest.
The project is from 7/1/2014 until 4/7/2014.
We prefer volunteers with Academic qualifications for example Autism qualifications (psychology, speech therapy etc) and also volunteers who can work as daily carers which does not require academic qualifications. All candidate volunteer profiles sent to us will remain confidential.
Volunteer tasks
During their service, the volunteer is not directly responsible for the residents, he/she has simply to follow the instructions of his/her tutors. In other words he/she will not be left alone with the residents, as his/her role is to support the employees in their work. What is more, he/she will be in continuous contact with responsible educators of the various activities and will be able to ask advice whenever needed. We will pay attention to every volunteer’s inclination in order to involve him/her in the activities that he/she prefers. Through the service the volunteers will have the opportunity to participate in educative activities as well as in internal and external socialization.
We ask him/her to work 37.5 hours per week Monday to Friday. Meaning 7.30am until 3.00pm. Volunteer will have all Cyprus bank holidays and Easter holidays and also 10 days off working. They will stay in a house/apartment near a central road so they can easily use bus or taxi. Association will provide them breakfast and lunch food at the Intervention Center.
If you are interested, please send us an e-mail, for more details at the address: autisticassociation@cytanet.
