Kids First Needs Your Help!!

Kids First recognizes that volunteer support is a critical component of the program’s success.  Volunteers will be recruited, screened and trained to match a variety of the Center’s needs, such as helping with client services, administration, community education and awareness and special projects.

All volunteers will receive orientation training and an overview of the services of the CAC.  Volunteers will complete an initial application which will include two character references.

Orientation training will be provided to all volunteers, with office and child volunteers receiving training on services of the CAC, issues of confidentiality, emergency procedures and any relevant policies and procedures.  Specific training will be provided based on the tasks involved in the volunteer’s job description.

Tasks may include:

• Filing and clerical work
• Participating in the school-based SCAN (Stop Child Abuse and Neglect) Program
• Sitting with kids prior to therapy and/or medication appointments
• Assisting with the newsletter
• Kids Christmas Party (party set-up, food prep, etc.)
• Back to School Bash for kids (party set-up, food prep, etc.)
• Soliciting for items (school supplies, food items, paper products, etc.)

Below is a list of forms that need to be completed in order to begin volunteer training.  The information should be completed and mailed to:
