At CLC, our progress is fueled by the vision of our leaders and the hard work of a dedicated network of volunteers. Each year, we ask members to partner with the CLC Board and staff to keep our organization vital and strong. Volunteering for a committee, work group, or task force is a great way to meet new people and to learn from established child life leaders.
If you are a current member and would like to get involved, please complete the Volunteer Interest Form
and fax to the CLC office at 301-881-7092. Your information will be forwarded to the appropriate committee chair(s) for consideration.
