PACE welcomes men and women who are looking to make an active and tangible difference in children’s lives to volunteer with our company.

We welcome volunteers throughout the year. We welcome Social Work, Psychology, and Criminal Justice students to volunteer at our home.

At PACE we provide trauma-informed care for children experiencing out-of-home placement. We implement specific safeguards in our volunteer selection process to ensure the safety of the children and families we serve. With regard for this commitment, volunteers are identified, screened, and trained prior to being placed in a volunteer role.
