Mission Statement
We are a relationship-building program that brings isolated people into greater community life. We selectively match one person with disabilities ('Partner’) with another person who enjoys a more socially included life ('Advocate’). We then support voluntary advocates as they strive to understand, represent, and respond to the interests of their partner. Our vision is a future where the world is keenly aware of the problems people with disabilities face. That knowledge prompts radical personal action to address those needs. Inclusion replaces exclusion, as communities grow in strength and diversity.
Description
Through Do For One, you will have the opportunity to be selectively matched into a one-to-one supportive relationship with one adult who has a disability.
We are looking for ordinary New Yorkers who are interested in learning more about becoming a freely given, enduring friend and supportive neighbor (called an "Advocate") to one person who has been marginalized in society due to having a disability.
