Join a Community Dedicated to Listening, Learning, & Connection

Volunteers are at the heart of the Birren Center’s mission.

Every class, conversation, and story shared in Guided Autobiography happens because people are willing to give their time, skills, and care to support others. When you volunteer with the Birren Center, you help create spaces where people reflect on their lives, discover meaning in their experiences, and connect with others through the power of storytelling.

Your contribution helps make these moments possible.
