IGNITING CREATIVITY

Spark Central breaks barriers to creativity like cost, confidence, and access by offering imaginative programs, access to innovative technology, and an inclusive creative community for folks of all economic backgrounds. Everyone deserves the opportunity to forge the future they imagine. As a 501(c)3 charitable organization, we rely on the generosity of people like you to keep our programs free so income is never a barrier to opportunity.

We have lots of programs that could use your help, and we've broken them down to three categories. No special skills or experience is necessary to volunteer for any of these - just bring your best self! 

Mentor youth in their creativity. In our space, we offer free public programs that ignite creativity for all ages. Those who participate will grow in confidence, cultivate a growth mindset, and develop their future aspirations. As a youth program volunteer, you might assist with setting up, cleaning up, and engaging our visitors during regular station hours or at special programs like our Level Up after-school program or camps during breaks in the District 81 school year.  Share your talents with our community. These volunteer opportunities offer the same creative, innovative, and imaginative explorations as our youth programs, but are intended for a broader audience. Spark Central also hosts activities and events not just for youth, but for teens, adults, and families as well. Volunteers have unique opportunities to bring their creativity to the station through drop-in programs as well as community and family events designed by passionate volunteers.  Help everyone access our resources. Our station and library volunteers are critical to ensuring access to all our visitors. These volunteers help adults, teens, and youth feel safe and welcomed in our space. You can also help people access our resources by being an outreach volunteer, attending events and talking about Spark Central. We have so many more opportunities in this area, like IT volunteers, maintenance volunteers, fundraising and events volunteers - you name it, we could use it! Let us know the kind of help you'd like to provide in any capacity. 

To learn more specifics about our volunteer opportunities, visit our volunteer page. To see our upcoming programs, visit our events page. 

The time commitment as a programs volunteer can vary depending on the availability and commitment from the volunteer.

Volunteer: Refugee Foster Care - Become a Foster Parent

LCSNW Unaccompanied Refugee Minor Program receives refugee youth ages 14-17 and places them into foster homes and group homes in the Spokane area. These youth have fled their countries due to war, conflict, and violence in search of safety and a better life. They do not have family to care for them, so our organization works to find them loving homes and reach their goals for success.

Are you willing to open your heart and home to a foster child? We’ll be honest, being a foster parent can be challenging. At the same time, we hear from many foster parents that they have grown from the experience.

In our LCS Northwest foster programs, we recruit, license and support foster parents. We are here to help foster parents so they aren’t in this alone. Our goal is to help you provide a stable home for youth who cannot live with their families. We recruit parents for two different programs – International Foster Care and Domestic Foster Care.

Foster parents and program staff work together to provide a safe haven to refugee and immigrant children from around the world. Refugee youth will be supported in their work to heal from past trauma while they pursue goals of learning English, getting an education, and preparing for a future of independence. Foster families are asked to make a long-term commitment to care for refugee child placed in their home.

Informational meetings for the Unaccompanied Refugee Minor Program are held on the second Tuesday of every month from 5:30-7:30pm at 210 W. Sprague, Spokane WA 99201.  Please contact us to RSVP.

 

The role of a Refugee Foster Parent is to:

Provide a safe and supportive home environment. Offer emotional support while managing behavior. Provide transportation and support for education, medical appointments and extracurricular activities. Be willing to learn about the youth’s culture and incorporate it into your home. Provide opportunities for youth to establish meaningful life-long relationships.

Most foster parents report a positive experience with refugee children. Many say they receive more from their foster children than what they gave.

 

Foster families receive:

Youth and behavioral parenting support Intensive case management 24-hour on-call services Initial and ongoing training Compensation package

 

International foster youth receive:

Foster care placement Individual counseling/behavioral support Skill development Participation in school and/or work Intensive case management Psycho-pharmacology services Community connections and support services
