The Center for Medically Fragile Children:

When a child has profound disabilities and requires complex medical care, families can feel overwhelmed, despite their unwavering love. Volunteers and staff at the Center for Medically Fragile Children at Providence Child Center provide an extension of that family. We give children opportunities to play, cuddle, laugh and learn. It is a profound experience for our volunteers and a labor of love for all of us.

Volunteer opportunities at the Center for Medically Fragile Children include working directly with a specific child; assisting with field trips, recreational programs and water activities; special events and parties, as well as helping the children get on and off their school buses. We have a limited number of opportunities for high school and college students.
