Volunteering is more than event set-ups and breakdowns. It's about making meaningful connections by talking to like minded folks about the importance of peer and family support, advocacy, and education. We offer 20 pieces of educational literature, peer group experiences, and fun get togethers. Nor sure what to say or do? We'll offer a new volunteer training get together before your event. Sign up today to join us for a few hours a month at a fun event.

The removal is the latest change to the monument, as the administration moves to alter what is on display at national parks across the country and impose President Donald Trump’s views on other US cultural and historical institutions. According to a National Park Service memorandum, the agency prohibits “non-agency flags and pennants” that are not the US flag or the Interior Department flag. NPS acting Director Jessica Bowron signed the directive in January, and there are exceptions for historical flags, military flags, or flags of federally recognized Tribal nations within the parks. The Interior Department told CNN in a statement Wednesday, “Recent adjustments to flag displays at the monument were made to ensure consistency with federal guidance and applicable executive order.”
