Please click here to view our parent mentor flyer

Help the parent become involved in activities to reduce isolation and establish support systems that are healthy and reliable.  They help teach parents new skills and prevent future incidents of abuse or neglect.

 

Tutors

Assist children in their learning process in studies such as math, science, and reading comprehension.  Most abused and neglected children are behind in school and would benefit from one-to-one tutoring!

 

 

Special Projects 

Some activities may include the Tot Stop and Tag station at the Wayne County Fair; escorting children to special events; participating in holiday parties; completing minor office tasks, like folding pamphlets; or assisting families with short-term budgeting issues.

 

Review Panel Members

Assist the administrative staff in conducting administrative reviews on all cases receiving on-going services from the agency.

 

 

Christmas Project                 

The Christmas "Make A Wish" program lasts about five months.  It begins by having volunteers solicit gifts of food, clothing and toys from area sponsors.  One then shops for the remaining wishes with contributions, wrap and distribute such items to needy families during the holidays.  This all begins in September and lasts well into January.
