Join TEAM KA'EO, JR.
We want to thank you again for your interest in becoming a volunteer! It is wonderful to have you considering supporting our family in this way. Your support will make such a difference in our lives and the life of our child.
We select volunteers who are enthusiastic about becoming happier as a lifestyle, who are interested in exploring themselves using the Option Process® Dialogue and who clearly make happiness a priority in their lives (by exploring discomforts and negative beliefs). No previous experience working with children with special needs is necessary, just the present desire to help our child.
We ask people who volunteer in our program to play a minimum of 5 hours per week and to attend our monthly group meeting, where we discuss the exciting changes and progress of our child and together, learn ways we can improve and enhance ourselves. We also would like a long-term commitment of at least six months because of the time that we will put into training you and the special bond you will form with our little angel. In return, you will receive feedback to enable you to build your skills and attitude in your work with our child, along with dialogues that will help you learn to become happier and more comfortable. Since the basis of our work with our child is an attitude of love and acceptance, all of your training will be aimed at helping you to become more loving an accepting of yourself and others, which will impact all areas of your life. If you volunteer with us, we intend to support you in becoming all that you want for yourself. This program is a unique opportunity for all of us to grow and use our love to reach out and embrace this very special little person.

ASD Climber Foundation: Volunteer for a Non-Profit 501c3 Organization
Thank you for your interest in volunteering! ASD Climber Foundation is an organization with a mission to help families of children with autism across the country find volunteers for their home-based Son-Rise autism therapy programs. They've worked with numerous high schools, colleges, and organizations across the country to connect volunteers with Son-Rise Program families.
ASD Climber Foundation helps recruit volunteers for the Son-Rise Program we are running for our 4 year old son, Ka'eo Jr, at our home in Makakilo (Kapolei). ASD Climber Foundation (www.asdclimber.org) is a 501c3 non-profit corporation in California. Part of their main mission is to help families running their own home-based Son-Rise Programs to help their children with autism. They've worked with numerous high schools, colleges, and organizations across the country to connect volunteers with Son-Rise Program families. (http://www.asdclimber.org/ASD_CLIMBER/CLIMBERS.html)
If you are interested in volunteering for an official 501c3 organization, you may officially volunteer for the ASD Climber Foundation and you will be assigned to volunteer in the Son-Rise Program for Ka'eo Jr. at our home in Makakilo (Kapolei). This means your volunteer hours can be logged, and after your original commitment time has been fulfilled, ASD Climber Foundation can write you an official referral letter (and we will too!). Our partnership with ASD Climber Foundation has been useful to students or people needing 501c3 volunteer hours and/or looking to work professionally in medical, education, social work, psychology or directly with special needs children.

Volunteer Responsibilities
Our home-based Son-Rise Program® is founded upon an attitude of love and acceptance. We use the approach outlined in the award-winning book and TV movie, Son-Rise, by Barry Neil Kaufman. As parents and directors of a program that uses the Option Process®, we have been trained to create a wonderfully nurturing and stimulating environment for our special child, to encourage a bonding that can invite our child to want to know more and participate with us to an even greater extent. Our intention is to help our child to be all he can be.
As a volunteer, you will be trained in the child-centered methods of The Son-Rise Program. As you become an integral team member in creating this non-judgmental and fun environment, you will become an extended family member in our child’s life, while at the same time recharging your own sense of aliveness and well being.
Your Volunteer Training Includes:

Your Volunteer Training Includes:
- Specific instruction in methods of The Son-Rise Program to help special children.
- Hands-on learning while working individually with our child.
- Regular Feedback Sessions: These times are designed to help you analyze and understand your interactions with our child in order to help you become more effective in helping them grow.
- Team Meetings: A key aspect of home-based programs, where we and all of our volunteers come together to share our excitement and experiences with our child, and to help design/redesign the ongoing focuses and content of the program.
- 1-on-1 Option Process® Dialogue Sessions: The Son-Rise Program approach is the only autism therapy that specifically focuses on the attitude of the person working directly with the child. For this reason, it is highly effective to explore our own beliefs, self-judgments, and comfort level. These optional dialogue sessions can serve as a gentle, safe and loving platform to explore our own beliefs and choose to live in love and happiness if we want to.
Please download our application form for you to fill out and return it to us. If you have any questions about working in our program, please call or email us!
Thank you again for your interest! We look forward to the possibility of sharing much more with you.
Sincerely,
Ka’eo and Jackie Griffin
