Will I get to eat?
After our participants are winding down and leaving, you will be able to visit the kitchen and chaperone room for dinner. Please eat before you arrive and let us know if you need to eat for medical reasons so someone can cover your assignment while you do.

I have never worked with individuals with disabilities before. Will I be able to do this?
Absolutely! Our participants are here to have a good time with you. At our Volunteer Orientation we will cover some best practices and tips. The most important thing you need to do is just talk to your Buddy and be ready to talk about yourself. ANTS team members will be available if you get into a situation you're unsure how to handle.

I'm in high school, can I get service hours for this?
Absolutely! Please let us know if you will need us to confirm hours for you. We can sign forms or provide a letter but will need to know ahead of time. The night of gets a little crazy and we don't want that important paperwork getting lost on the dance floor.
