Do you love history, science, and art exhibits and sharing your enthusiasm for these subjects with kids? The museum is looking for volunteers to lead school groups through the exhibits.

As a tour guide, you'll be responsible for leading groups of up to 25 students and their teachers/chaperones through the exhibits for 45-60 minutes.  Successful volunteers don't need to be experts on everything in the museum; we'll teach you everything you need to know. What is more important is enthusiasm, the ability to think on your feet when a kid asks a whacky question, and your ability to make the museum fun and entertaining.

Volunteers train by shadowing experienced guides, spending time exploring the exhibits on their own, and when they're ready, by doing a tag-team tour with an experienced guide.

The schedule is variable, but our volunteers typically lead between 2 and 5 tours each month, and tours are usually weekdays with most being in the mornings.

The first step is to fill out an application, which can be found at: https://www.nevillepublicmuseum.org/support/volunteer/

We will reach out to selected applicants for a short interview, and all Brown County volunteers must pass a background check.

We need your help to support family caregivers within our community!

The ADRC is seeking partners to join us in facilitating Powerful Tools for Caregivers classes. This six-week caregiver series provides a variety of tools and strategies to better handle situations commonly faced when caring for a loved one who has a chronic condition or is aging.

We are looking for current or former caregivers to help lead The Powerful Tools for Caregivers (PTC) classes in Brown County. Licensed class leaders are fully prepared to team-teach or co-facilitate Powerful Tools for Caregivers to groups of 8 – 15 family caregivers.  PTC facilitators will lead the class with a detailed, scripted curriculum that builds on The Caregiver Helpbook. The class is available in multiple languages and can be delivered in-person or virtually; each leader decides what format they are most comfortable with.

Listen to what facilitators and caregivers who have attended the class have to say about Powerful Tools for Caregivers in this one-minute promotional video. If you have questions or would like more information on the process, contact Teri at the ADRC, 920-448-4320 or teri.bradford@browncountywi.gov

“It never ceases to amaze me how transforming this course is – the dramatic change in the demeanor of the participants from the first to the sixth class.”
