I understand that not everyone is well-suited to volunteering as an Adventures in Caring intern, and that attending the training seminar does not guarantee my being accepted into the internship program. This decision is made by the Adventures in Caring training staff.

I understand that the commitment required to participate in this program is to make one visit per week for a full school year (excluding breaks).

Uniform

Upon acceptance into the internship program you will be: 1) Assigned a local skilled nursing or assisted living unit to visit weekly, and 2) Given a uniform (a polo shirt with the Adventures in Caring logo). Please indicate above the size of shirt you will need.
