Volunteers Urgently Needed

We are in immediate need of volunteers to serve as Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) and FOCUS Mentors. 

CASA provides a four-day in person training, asks volunteers to make a two- year commitment to the program, and requires a time investment of approximately 10 hours a month.

FOCUS, which matches community volunteers with young adults who have been in foster care, provides a two-day training, asks volunteers to make a three-year commitment, and requires a time investment of three-five hours a month. 

If you or someone you know may be interested in these volunteer opportunities, please contact Debi Belkin, Director of Programs, at 413-374-1634 or debi@friendsofchildreninc.org.
