<p>Fosters are sought who will agree to provide the home care, food and medicine recommended and/or provided by Place For Cats and our veterinarians.&nbsp; All medical care and medicine is provided.&nbsp;Fosters normally agree to provide the recommended food and litter.&nbsp;Place For Cats provides food for kitties with extra special food requirements.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Ideally, the foster has had experience with pets and can administer basic medication, such as oral antibiotics and/or eye ointments. Most people can be taught how to do this if they have had no prior experience. All fosters are asked to complete and sign our basic fostering application which appears on our website. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

Fosters Needed For Rescued Felines!

<p>Place For Cats seeks foster moms and dads for our rescued felines. The more fosters, the more cats that can be saved.  Because the fosters frequently end up adopting their wards, new fosters are always needed as new rescues arrive. Most of the cats rescued by Place For Cats come from Animal Care Centers' nightly At Risk lists ("death lists"). We save animals that NYC would euthanize due to a broken limb that requires six weeks of confiinement, or an upper respiratory illness ("kitty cold") that requires a couple weeks of antibiotics. Each rescue is placed with a loving foster who has the time and ability to care for the kitty while the wound heals or the ailment subsides.  When the feline is all better, he/she goes on Place For Cats' adoption roster and a purrrrmanent loving home is found.</p>

Place For Cats operates via a network of foster homes. Fostering periods usually run from a couple weeks to several months. Medical care costs are provided by Place For Cats.

Van Cortlandt Park, serving an estimated 2.5 million people annually, is the third largest park in New York City—a “living classroom” and a quality-of-life hub in the Bronx.</p>

<p>Volunteers will work closely with the Special Events Coordinator and with the Volunteer Coordinator to create and translate written material. For example: monthly/weekly flyers, e-blast messages and brochures.</p>

The Van Cortlandt Park Conservancy is seeking a bilingual volunteer who can translate English documents into Spanish. Flexible schedule available.

GallopNYC: Volunteer with HORSES to help people with Disabilities in New York City

<p>Join GallopNYC's volunteer team.</p>

<p>Therapeutic horsemanship teaches the skills of horseback riding and horse knowledge to build developmental, emotional, social, and physical skills for each individual rider. Under the direction of a PATH International certified instructor, supported by trained volunteers, each rider progressively acquires riding skills and measurable improvements in life skills. Through weekly sessions, we help riders walk, talk, learn and have FUN! We also offer hippotherapy services.Therapeutic horsemanship means more than just learning to ride a horse – it means building a bond with a horse, learning to care for a horse, understanding how horses perceive the world and respond to people, and ultimately being a leader to a horse.</p>

<p><strong>Volunteer Duties:</strong></p>

<ul>
<li>
<p><strong>Side Walking:</strong> Assist the instructor during therapeutic riding sessions by working directly with the riders. Act as an intermediary between the rider and instructor by assisting the rider in carrying out the instructor’s directions.</p>

<ul>
<li>
<p>Help prepare riders for lessons</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Assist with rider support during mounting and dismounting</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Walk (and jog) next to the rider throughout the class and provide physical support as necessary</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Help the rider follow directions given by the instructor</p>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Lead Walking:</strong> Volunteer will lead horses during therapeutic riding classes, working with a group of side-walkers, keeping primary focus on assigned horse (and not the rider) while maintaining communication with team.</p>

<ul>
<li>
<p>Executes directions of the instructor during therapeutic riding sessions</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Depending on site, will bring horses in and out of arena</p>

<p>Mentoring is a structured and trusting relationship that brings young people together with caring individuals who offer guidance, support, and encouragement aimed at developing the competence and character of a mentee.

Mentors commit to spend at least 2 hours per month with the young adults for eleven months. Mentors spend this weekly time simply being adult friends to the young adult (mentee). Not a parent, not a therapist, not a preacher. Rather, a team of adult friends that invest their time listening, building trust, establishing relationship, supporting, guiding and through the course of the year share their passion for healthcare.</p>

<p>If you&#39;re a functioning adult, you can do our level of math. For example, if you can calculate the tip on your dinner bill without a calculator, you&#39;re set. Can you convert a fraction to a decimal and think of a real life application of it? That&#39;s the kind of stuff that we do. If you&#39;re game, join us!</p>

<p>Prior experience is not required! Top Honors provides basic training, curriculum, and materials. We&#39;re looking for role models to middle-schoolers. We find that kind, patient, and enthusiastic volunteers match well with our student population. Come join our volunteer family!</p>

Volunteer MATH tutors needed on the Lower East Side!

<p>Top Honors (TH) is a free math tutoring program serving NYC middle school students (5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th graders) who struggle with math.</p>

<p>Top Honors seeks volunteers who can make the same weekly commitment to one of these time slots from October - May. School holidays are observed, which averages out to be 2-3 Saturdays per month.<br />
<br />
Our tutors are NYC professionals looking for a meaningful, long-term, weekend volunteer experience. Volunteers are compassionate, engaging, communicative, patient, and comfortable with basic middle school math concepts. You should be comfortable working fairly autonomously within the structure of our program. We love people who can run with things and ask questions.</p>

Tutor math and mentor NYC middle school students in the Lower East Side on Saturday mornings, from October 2019 through May 2020!

<p>Affordable, limited-equity HDFC co-ops have a unique history and place in the landscape of New York City’s housing. There are about 1,100 HDFC co-ops in New York City today. These co-ops have taken different legal paths to become co-ops since the 1970s.</p>

<p>Some HDFCs started as occupied buildings abandoned by the landlords. Tenants were able to advocate for themselves through the city’s Tenant Interim Lease (TIL) program and, usually after years of training and practice in self-management, became cooperative owners. Others started out as vacant buildings, abandoned many years before. City residents in need of affordable housing began rebuilding some of these, turning crumbling structures into habitable homes through their own labor and later becoming co-op owners as well.</p>

<p>The Urban Homesteading Assistance Board (UHAB) was founded in 1973 to help residents take control of their housing through the cooperative model. Our organization has accumulated many pieces of history from the co-ops we’ve assisted throughout the years. As affordable housing becomes a more crucial issue in New York City than ever, we are now working to keep the memory of these co-ops’ struggle for survival and self-determination alive through the collection of oral histories.</p>

<p>This is an opportunity for youth to learn firsthand about an important and under-publicized piece of our city’s history, develop interviewing and primary source research skills, and contribute to a non-profit organization’s effort to create a living oral history archive. Participating students should have an active interest in affordable housing and if possible some connection to affordable housing co-ops.</p>

<p>Students will receive training on affordable housing, HDFCs, and collecting oral history. We will work with students to identify and recruit interviewees. Interviews will be used to inform ongoing UHAB projects, such as an exhibition on the history of homesteading and HDFC co-ops, and an illustrated book. Students will also have the chance to create a write-up or other project based on their findings. This position involves travel.</p>

This position is a research position for youth interested in the history of affordable housing in New York City.

<p>UHAB is looking for youth (ages 14-24) with an interest in organizing and tenants&#39; rights. Students who live or go to school in Crown Heights are especially encouraged to apply.</p>

Youth Tenant Organizing Program

<p>UHAB’s Organizing department helps renters in Brooklyn and Manhattan create strong tenant associations to deter displacement and hold landlords accountable for improving living conditions. UHAB has worked to prevent the unnecessary evictions of families in rent-stabilized buildings by supporting the Crown Heights Tenant Union, a collective of tenant associations in the neighborhood. We hope to engage youth in this work during the spring semester of 2019.</p>

<p>The Youth Tenant Organizing Program will train participants in the following:<br />
• New York State housing rights<br />
• Researching buildings<br />
• Successful door knocking practices<br />
• Facilitation of tenant meetings</p>

<p>After completing the training, students can use their required community service hours towards developing their own tenant association and encouraging them to fight for better services or assist in our outreach to buildings in Crown Heights. This experience will help train future leaders to fight for housing justice in their communities. Priority given to students who live or go to school in the Crown Heights area.</p>

This position will train youth in basic organizing skills, such as doorknocking and meeting facilitation.
