The MUHSEN (Muslims Understanding and Helping Special Education Needs) organization needs volunteers nationwide. See how you can help today! Please see below:

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED NATIONWIDE!!   It's simple. We need volunteers to help provide respite to the ever multiplying families in desperate need of it. What is Respite? It is a period of much needed rest or relief for caregivers of people with disabilities. Sign Up Here!   "Whoever relieves a believer's distress of the distressful aspects of this world, Allah will rescue him from a difficulty of the Hereafter." -Sahih Muslim Visit our Website! Worried that you have no experience working with people with special needs?   We will train you to become a MUHSEN Certified Respite Volunteer!   ......   You gain characteristics of patience, resiliency, empowerment, and humility.   You can volunteer as often or as little you'd like! There's no stipulation.       Training is fast and simple!   Sign up ONLINE! We hostonline webinars the first Saturday of every month at 10am CST.   If you have a larger group that you'd like us to train together or you're interested in hosting an event to train volunteers at, contact us directly atvolunteer@muhsen.org     You asked us for an opportunity to help, here is what we need.   Become a respite volunteer today!   Before you click out of this email, read what one mother wrote about respite care:   "A few years ago I realized that declining an offer of assistance was not only unhelpful to me, but was alsodepriving another of baraka, or the opportunity to help a fellow Muslim in need. I always said 'its ok, I got this', if someone offered to help with my daughter's wheelchair or open the door for us, thinking I had to be "Supermom" and take care of my kids all by myself. But I was wrong-   I can't do this all on my own.  People don't offer to help as often as one might think- families like ours might seem intimidating or complicated. But we're not-we're just typical people in atypical circumstances. And those few times someone does offer to help, I gratefully accept-giving us both a moment of kindness to share. I can't stress enough how even little acts of kindness to our family means to us. Bigger, grander gestures of someone volunteering to watch our girls while I go grocery shopping, or go for a physical for myself, arefew and far between unfortunately. But when it does happen, that moment of kindness, that mutually beneficial gift of giving and receiving, that baraka remains for long after in our hearts”  -Saba Ali Arain    ‌  ‌  ‌
