Other ways to get involved:

Referral Line:

We are asking for volunteers to serve one day a week to answer the phone between 9:00am-4:00pm. This team receives phone calls from referring parent with new hosting need. You role will be to ask questions and record information, and pray with the referring parent when possible. Referral Line volume is currently very light, receiving 1-2 calls per day maximum, and some days no calls at all.

Intake Team:

The Intake Team’s responsibility is to arrange the meeting of the families to sign documentation and transfer the child(ren). Once the hosting is ready to start they also alert Prayer Team, Resource Friends, and Family Friends of new hosting so they can all wrap around the families. Intake Team volume is very light, typically facilitating 1-2 new hostings per week, and sometimes no hostings in some weeks
