Volunteers

Grace Kids is always looking for caring people to volunteer with our children. Our program is dependent upon adult (over age 18) volunteer availability. An application, training, and background check are required for staff, teachers, and volunteers working with children in our Grace Kids ministry.

Youth volunteers (age 11-17) are welcome to apply as classroom aids and younger volunteers (ages 8 to 11) may serve if supervised by their parent or guardian (who have been through the volunteer training process.)

For questions about Grace Kids and volunteering, contact Miss Linn at linn@graceseattle.org
