Matches adult volunteers with children who need a supportive adult in their life. The program recruits men and women who are willing to make a commitment to a child for at least one year. Volunteers spend 4 hours a month with a child, participating in activities of their choice throughout the community (going to the zoo, playing catch, or taking a walk). Staff members evaluate prospective volunteers for the qualities necessary to contribute to the healthy development of the child. A child is matched with a volunteer big brother, big sister, couple or family according to the child’s needs and the capabilities of the volunteer(s). Following the match, supervision is provided by the professional staff to assist the big brother, sister, couple or family in developing a strong positive relationship with the child.

During that hour, the match spends time working on the child’s schoolwork, talking, and quite simply, building a friendship.
