Welcome to the volunteer opportunities available with the Aging and Disability Resource Center of Waukesha County (ADRC). Volunteers bring a unique spirit to the ways in which the ADRC works toward its mission to improve life in Waukesha County. Volunteers allow the ADRC to reach out to families and individuals in many more special ways than would be possible with paid staff alone.
In addition to the personal rewards of volunteering, the ADRC offers other benefits to volunteer staff:
Volunteer Positions at the ADRC
Benefit Specialist Volunteer
Benefit Specialist Volunteers are needed to help with insurance, medical bills, Medicare, legal issues, social security and other benefits. Assist in filling out forms, filing, etc. Training is provided.
Eldereach Volunteer
Eldereach Volunteers are needed to perform Home Delivered Meals eligibility reassesments. Volunteers are trained to assess the needs of the person they visit and report those needs to the ADRC. Training is provided.

Volunteer Guardians serve a very important role in making essential decisions for vulnerable adults regarding safety and well-being. The volunteer guardian advocates for the best interest of the ward they are assigned.
