Anyone know of any volunteer opportunities?

Does anyone know of any short-term (maybe 6-8 weeks ish) volunteer/study opportunities in the USA?

I'm planning to have a prolonged holiday/vacation in the USA (anywhere, but ideally east-coast states), for 6-8 weeks (ish, i'm flexible) next year, but I will be staying alone so would like to be able to do some studying or some volunteering so I can meet people. Does anyone know of any opportunities like this? I'm not a student (so J1 visa is out :(.) but I know you can volunteer under the visa waiver program for non-profits but I can't find any that take short-term positions. Or do you know of any colleges that offer short courses that I could take? My areas of interest are social work/social care but anything helping people would be fine. I have experience and an undergraduate degree in this area and I am 25. Thanks for any input!
