<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Self-advocacy is the key for any volunteer or paid job.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Many years past, after finishing college I was looking for a volunteer or a paid job. I found 3 different volunteer opportunities.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Here in the D.C. area there are government and not for profits more than any other place.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">The two volunteer positions were working with the public giving them information face-to-face. Library of Congress volunteer information specialist and at the
 Smithsonian in the same position. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Both the institutions refused to give me a volunteer job because of my blindness. The self-advocacy helped in many ways.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">As you can imagine, their concern was how would a blind person read maps to give directions for different museums or give direction inside the huge building.
 We in the federation know that with a little learning and exploring we can master the skill, but what do the sighted world know. We just have to show them our abilities.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">I got both the positions.  I worked at the Library of Congress for 1 year and at the Smithsonian for 10 years. I met with thousands of people from around the
 globe.  Federation outreach was always with me. People who had never seen a blind person working got new knowledge. People who have worked with the blind were also amazed.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">We are changing what it means to be blind one activity at a time.

 Work-Related Benefits of Volunteering for Job Seekers Who are Blind or Visually Impaired</span></a>? Did you find yourself saying, "Shannon" (I'm glad you said Shannon, because we're on a first-name basis), "I like the idea of volunteering, but what kind of
 volunteer position should I get? How do I get a volunteer position?"<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I'm glad you asked. This blog post is for you.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Read through these helpful tips on finding a volunteer position; it's à la carte (just like a pick-and-choose hot lunch in middle school, only better), so take the advice you need to hear and leave the rest for others.<o:p></o:p></p>

<h3>When considering a volunteer position that would be a good fit for you...<o:p></o:p></h3>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l1 level1 lfo1">Inventory your interests. Write them down and dig deep. When you think you've written all your interests, write more. Self-awareness is a great starting place for finding volunteer or paid work that meshes
 with you.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l1 level1 lfo1">Inventory your values. Consider all the causes you would want to benefit with your time and talents. Literacy? Children with terminal illness? Youth athletics? Art in schools? Racial equality? Educating
 the public on blindness and visual impairments? Quality time with foster children? Reading to the elderly? Feeding the hungry? Environmental protection? Animal care? Keep thinking. There are numerous worthy causes.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l1 level1 lfo1">Inventory your skills. What can you contribute to the cause(s) or people? Examples: reading to others, playing with children, walking or feeding animals, preparing or serving food, talking with others, writing,
 gardening, administrative work, answering telephones, cleaning, presenting, crocheting, repairing malfunctioning technology (for the record, I do not have this skill), medical expertise, legal advice, photography, etc.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l1 level1 lfo1">If you are using volunteer work to prepare you for paid work, list the skills you would like to learn and/or practice through volunteering. What types of volunteer activities will best train and equip you
 for your professional goals?<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l1 level1 lfo1">Think through your limitations. Maybe it's your restricted availability, inefficient use of assistive technology, or inaccessible public transportation. Problem solve: What volunteer positions can you participate
 in regardless of your limitations? Is there a position that can help you to improve or provide the motivation to improve a limitation?<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<h3>Now that you know what types of activities would be a good fit, here are volunteer-position-seeking tips...whew, that's a mouthful!<o:p></o:p></h3>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo2">Talk with those in your social network. Does your neighbor or church friend work at a location in which you would like to volunteer? Ask about the agency, ask about gaps that need to be filled, and ask who
 you can contact about filling a gap.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo2">Search the Internet for local volunteer opportunities that match your interests, values, skills, and professional goals. Peruse volunteer-matching websites such as the American Red Cross and volunteer wanted
 ads.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo2">Make cold calls. If you know right where you want to volunteer, call the agency. Let them know how you can be of service. Ask if you can meet up to discuss a volunteer position or ask if you can be e-mailed
 a volunteer application. Send the completed application back with a cover letter.<o:p></o:p></li></ul>

<p class="MsoNormal">You got the "job"? Send a thank-you letter to anyone who helped to connect you with the position.<o:p></o:p></p>
