Volunteer Opportunities

Volunteers founded Child Guidance Center, Inc. in 1967 with nothing more than the recognition of a need for the services, the vision to see the possibilities and the commitment to make it happen.

Volunteers made the difference then. They continue to do so today. Men and women, as individuals and corporations, continue to advance this worthy cause by contributing professional services.

Those services may be in the form of a few hours per week of counseling services by a licensed mental health professional, legal services by an attorney, accounting by a certified public accountant, writing promotional copy by a public relations firm, providing office space by a developer or a realtor, assisting at Child Guidance Center, Inc.’s signature fundraiser, the Holiday Tree Fantasy, or serving on one of the Board of Directors’ standing committees.

For additional information on how you or your company might provide pro-bono professional services, please e-mail Lori Pack, LCSW, Executive Director. In addition, Lori may be contacted by telephone at (714) 953-4455, ext. 617.
