Do For One is a relationship building program that brings isolated people with disabilities into greater community life through the power of one-on-one, freely given, enduring relationships across societal barriers.
Join us for our next In-Person Introductory Session on Monday, May 18th from 7-9pm at a venue in Midtown East.
At this orientation session, you will:
- Hear stories of transformative relationships between people with and without disabilities, and learn about how you can get involved.
- Gain a deeper understanding of the history and philosophy behind Do For One’s mission.
- Learn about Do For One’s approach in addressing the core issue of devaluation that people with disabilities face and why personal and freely-given relationships is our response.
- Hear stories about real Do For One relationships, and learn about a number of ways for you to support our mission and get involved.
There will be extended time for Q+A and mingling at the end. For those interested in becoming matched into a one-on-one supportive relationship with a person with a disability, please note that our primary focus this year is recruiting people with disabilities living in Manhattan and West/Central Queens. We welcome Advocates living anywhere to get involved, but please know that you would likely be matched with someone living in those areas.
