Volunteer
Special Friends Network
Special Friends are volunteers who commit to spending quality time each month with a foster child who is matched to them based on certain commonalities. These can include gender, shared interests, and location of residence. Special Friends are caring adults who listen, support, and encourage children while exposing them to life-enriching experiences involving the arts, sports, volunteer activities, etc.
As a Special Friend, you can help make a difference in one of these children's lives by serving as a role model, advocate, mentor, and friend. Special Friends assist youth in learning important life-skills such as decision-making, relationship building, and living successfully within a community.
