Teaching clients how to take the bus enables them to get to work, class, appointments, the store, and various other locations. This volunteer opportunity is a critical part of cultural orientation for our newest Kansas Citians!

Description
Della Lamb Community Services has played an important role in the development of Kansas City. During its 120+ years in an ever-changing world, Della Lamb has developed a network of services which move children and families out of poverty and toward an improved quality of life and, ultimately, to self-sufficiency.
DLCS serves the needs of more than 1,500 low-income or vulnerable families in northeast Kansas City, Missouri and the urban core. This includes rent and utility assistance, food, and other emergency services. These are among the most vital and the most basics human needs.
DLCS has been formally resettling refugees in Kansas City since 2014, but we’ve been providing services to KC’s refugee population for decades! There are many ways you can help our new refugee neighbors. You can prepare a home, teach ESL or cultural orientation, or even partner with a family during the transition!
