Volunteer Opportunities

Volunteers play a vital role in the success of the services Bethesda provides to people with developmental disabilities.

Special Events

Advocacy

Its purpose is to educate and engage, to mobilize support for system reforms and improvements, and to seek improved and sustainable funding for services and supports. Bethesda Voices is open to anyone with an interest in disabilities advocacy, and is free.
