Description
Family Friends provide needed support and friendship to parents in crisis.
Parenting in isolation is challenging, especially for single parents. As a Family Friend, you have the opportunity to help parents feel less alone by offering them a listening ear and someone to do life with. From park hangs to getting coffee or celebrating a birthday together, your friendship can be life changing.
Family Friends must attend training, be background checked, and go through an application process. All family friends should be 21 years or older to volunteer.
