Child Protection Specialist-Case Management at UNICEF

This position requires the ability to take responsibility in monitoring children’s development and progress in different areas as well as the surrounding. This  position is similar to what I have experienced---being intensive case manager for mental and behavioral health in addition to deaf consumers.

Volunteer-Child Protection or Education at Save The Children

This position is non-pay and can be performed in homeland or oversea. However, volunteering oversea depends on whether or not I travel to a country for a long-term visit.  The position operates similar to UNICEF’s positions.

Deaf Child Worldwide does not offer volunteer or career opportunities. It only asks for donations. This organization focuses on supplying educational support to the deaf communities in third world countries. I am disappointed that this does not advertise the actual life-experience opportunity for individuals like me to contribute through hand-on activities instead of monetary.
