Ally (Intentional Friend)
As a team volunteer, an individual would sit on one of our several teams that provide support for our Circles Program. These teams work on recruiting volunteers and participants, networking social services to our participants, managing our weekly Circles meetings, connecting our participants with jobs and educational pathways, and addressing community-wide barriers to a sustainable life. Each team would meet on a regular basis, possibly bi-monthly/monthly. Browse our Resource Team Brochure.
Ally (Intentional Friend)
Community Awareness Member
Ally (Intentional Friend)
An ally volunteer is a community member who wants to be in a supportive, intentional, befriending relationship across income lines. Many middle- and high-income individuals enjoy a network of support outside of their families while individuals in poverty rarely do. Allies provide support, collaboration, and advocacy, not rescue. At these meetings training and support for you as an ally will be provided. https://youtu.be/YEa3yna9bRA
