Join us as a Volunteer

Nanaimo Disability Resource Center offers four programs which are lifelines to people in need. Many of the people we serve have nowhere else to turn and as such they deeply appreciate the help we provide.

We invite you to join us and help individuals overcome barriers related to physical and mental health, and help find solutions for those living on low incomes. Together we can demonstrate what a caring community truly looks like!
