Our mission

Sin Barreras provides direct services to clients, runs workshops to provide resources and education (for both the Spanish and English speaking communities), and participates in advocacy initiatives that affect our clients.

Opportunities

Spanish-Speaking Educators Volunteer for GED Prep Course

Sin Barreras is working to expand the number of direct educational opportunities we provide the local Spanish-speaking immigrant community. The latest endeavor that is in the very beginning stages of development is a GED exam preparation course taught in Spanish. If you are interested in being part of a team that develops this course or you’re interested in being a potential instructor for the course in the not too distant future, please reach out to our Volunteer Coordinator, Chayla Rowley at [email protected].

Technology Team

Come be part of our volunteer Technology Team! Our tech needs are wide, but you don’t need to know everything about technology to join; who can?!

You might work in a particular tech field like data management, website design, etc. Or you might enjoy figuring out new gadgets and troubleshooting them.

Spanish is NOT necessary and our meeting times are flexible. If you are interested in making a real impact on the development of a non-profit in your community, here’s your chance!

Spanish-speaking Assistant

Do you speak Spanish? Do you like planning things and talking to people? Do you work well independently while also feeling like part of a team? Then this could be for you! We are looking for someone to assist our Programs Lead in providing much needed services like English tutoring & GED prep sessions. You would be helping create marketing materials, chatting with people about their experiences in our programs and more. It’s a good mix of creation & conversation. It’s also an ongoing commitment, but is one you can work into a flexible schedule.
