What kind of support does BBBS give volunteers?
The Enrollment/Match Coordinator (EMC) personally interviews each volunteer to ensure that they are matched to a child with similar interests. The EMC then helps the volunteer and child get to know each other and come up with a list of activities to do together. The volunteer is trained to know how to work with the child. The EMC makes sure that the match is supported throughout the relationship. Regular contact is maintained throughout the entire match.
