Volunteer Information & Opportunities
Edgerton Community Outreach is mostly run by our hardworking volunteers. ECO could not continue working towards our mission without their continued commitment to our organization. Thank you to each and every volunteer who has donated their time to Edgerton Community Outreach.
ECO Opportunities
Edgerton Community Outreach Opportunities employs young adults with disabilities within our community to increase their independence and to be a productive member of our community. ECO partners with the School District of Edgerton and Wisconsin Department of Vocational Rehabilitation (DVR) to create jobs for young adults with special needs. ECO Opportunity employees work alongside a job coach to influence the learning process that is important for each young adult to achieve individual goals as well as organizational goals.
New Volunteers
ECO’s Volunteer Contact will meet with new volunteers to explain available volunteer opportunities and set up training times. ECO also works with youth volunteers. All youth volunteers under the age of 18 must have a parent sign a permission slip prior to volunteering at ECO. Youth volunteers 13 years of age or younger must be accompanied by a parent/guardian.
