Regional Event Coordinator; Volunteer

Community Coordinator (Volunteer) – Mankato, MN Spark community. Build connection. Create belonging.

MNeurodivergent is seeking a passionate and organized Community Coordinator to lead our volunteer-driven efforts in Mankato
. This is a meaningful volunteer opportunity to help establish a thriving, inclusive social network for neurodivergent adults in your region.

As a Community Coordinator, you'll be the driving force behind bringing our mission to life locally. You'll coordinate monthly meetups—from casual coffee chats and board game nights to museum outings and creative workshops. You’ll also recruit and support other volunteers, connect with local venues, and make sure every event is welcoming, safe, and affirming.

• Plan and host 1–2 monthly events that foster connection among neurodivergent adults
• Scout and secure accessible, sensory-considerate venues in the Mankato area
• Promote events through online platforms, local calendars, and social channels
• Welcome attendees and set a positive, inclusive tone at each event
• Recruit and manage volunteers for co-hosting, set‑up, and outreach tasks
• Act as the main liaison between the Mankato area and the MNeurodivergent leadership team

• A community‑mindful individual who is reliable, proactive, and organized
• Someone who identifies as neurodivergent or is passionate about neurodiversity inclusion
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills
• Event planning experience is a bonus—but not required!

Approx. 4–6 hours per month, including planning, communication, and attending events. Scheduling is flexible and designed to fit your life.

Many neurodivergent adults in Mankato are looking for connection—but don’t have access to spaces that feel safe, understanding, and fun. With your leadership, MNeurodivergent can change that. You’ll be creating opportunities for people to meet, make friends, and feel truly seen.

• Leadership and event planning experience
• Deepened community connections
• Ongoing support, training, and mentorship from MNeurodivergent
• The joy of helping others find their people

We only need one person to bring MNeurodivergent to Mankato—could it be you?
