Resumo: (Disabilities – special needs, inclusion – equality, health and wellbeing, creativity and culture)
The hosting organization is a part of the federation of municipalities, which offers services for people with intellectual disabilities or autistic spectrum disorders. The activities the organization offers are divided into several sections in different areas.

The participants of the organization’s life skills activities (Livsorienterad (LO) verksamhet in Swedish) require guidance and support in their daily activities. The life skills activities take place in small groups consisting of 2–4 people and are always planned according to the condition, interests, and needs of the participants. About twenty people take part in the life skills activities daily.

Dagtek’s daily activities consist of music, arts and crafts, painting, games and walks outside, for example. The goal is to encourage every participant to be active, get involved, make their own decisions and affect the content of their daily lives, taking into consideration every participant’s individual starting point

Perfil: Age:18-30

We are looking for a volunteer interested in working with adults (18–60-year-olds) who have intellectual or physical disabilities or autistic disorders. It is important that the volunteer is socially active, flexible and motivated to participate in the community life, meaning being there for the clients and communicating actively with them.
It is also important that the volunteer has open communication with the staff team and shares their ideas and observations with them. The working language of the organization is Swedish, so it is important that the volunteer is motivated to learn Swedish. We wish that the volunteer has good social skills and is open to meeting new people.
We appreciate flexibility and a positive outlook on life and other people. It is also important that the volunteer is able to tolerate fast-changing situations. Experiences or skills in alternative communication methods are an advantage, but not a requirement. If you feel like you have the ability to motivate and encourage people and awaken their interest in participating and being active, you are a good match for the team!

Tarefas: Through European Solidarity Corps volunteer cooperation, the organization wishes to offer its community members the possibility to build networks and get a wider perspective on the world around us. At the same time, we hope to have one more person to be present for our clients and assist them in the daily workshop activities as well as in social and practical situations during the day.

The volunteer’s role in the life skills activities is to support the clients and give guidance for them. The volunteer also helps in the clients’ daily activities related to mealtimes, going to the toilet and walks outside, as well as walking the clients to and from their car transportation when they arrive and leave the organization. According to their skills and interests, the volunteer can also organize activities for small groups or individuals. Dagtek values creative activities such as music, arts&crafts and physical and outdoor activities.

The clients appreciate possibilities for individual encounters, for example, talks or reading for them. The volunteer can also contribute to the production of pedagogic and visual support materials and the documentation of the organization’s activities through photographing, for example.

Condições: The volunteer will be accommodated in a local host family if a person or family is willing to host is found. Otherwise, the volunteer will live in a shared flat together with another volunteer. Lunch is offered at the organization. Other meals are provided by the host family or cooked by the volunteer (in which case the volunteer will get a food allowance). The possible daily commuting costs are covered for the volunteer.
