Thinking of volunteering with TUOI ?

You would like to help people and support an organization by giving time and sharing knowledge and experience? Why not join TUOI as a volunteer?

Our organization's mission is to offer services to individuals aged between 0 and 21 years, having been diagnosed as autistic or having another pervasive developmental disorder (PDD) as well as to offer support to their families and close ones.

Here are the different kinds of help needed:

• Accompanying groups to varied activities (evenings and week-ends, especially during the school year);



• Helping out at day camps during the summer;



• Sharing special talents such as: crafts, music, children's games, sports, etc.;



• Helping out with our child care service to allow parents to participate in activities (mostly evenings during the week);



• Assuming administrative tasks;



• Participating in fund raising activities;



• Sitting on selective or regular committees in order to share your expertise;



• Participating in a variety of annual events (Christmas parties, Autism Awareness Month - April - and others).

It is also possible to volunteer on an occasional basis (annual events, fund raising) or on a regular basis (group accompaniments, administrative work) according to your availability. A basic training concerning Pervasive Developmental Disorders (PDD) can be offered free of charge to regular volunteers (6 hours course with certificate of accreditation).

Looking forward to meeting you!
