Adult Education Program
The Golden Gate Adult Education program provides a variety of classes and workshops that support individuals in their life-long learning. Most participants are immigrants of Limited English Proficiency (LEP) who have not had access to educational opportunities and have challenges with acclimating in the U.S.

Volunteer
Although we utilize a full staff of professionals at Golden Gate Community Center, volunteers play a fundamental part of our team.
We would love to match your interests, availability, and skills, with a need in one of our programs. Since the rules (ex: medical certifications, background checks, age requirements, etc.) are a little different for each position, it would be best to contact us directly and explain what would interest you, rather than picking volunteer roles from a list.
If you are interested in volunteering at Golden Gate Community Center please contact us via email below and the volunteer coordinator will contact you.
