Volunteer Opportunities

At Family & Children's Services, volunteers are a key resource for fulfilling our mission of strengthening and promoting the well-being of children and families in our community. If you want to make a difference, join our team of volunteers!

F&CS has volunteer opportunities for a variety of interests. Opportunities are available on a one-time, seasonal or ongoing basis. These opportunities fall into three categories: program assistance, clerical support and special events.

Program Assistance
Volunteers age 16 and older are needed to assist with various F&CS programs, including life skills programs for youth, family strengthening programs and parenting workshops. Volunteer duties can include set-up and clean-up, child care, help with program facilitation and youth outings. Program meeting schedules, times and lengths vary. Criminal background checks are required for most program volunteers.

Clerical Support
Volunteers are needed during working hours, Monday through Friday, to create charts, answer telephones, complete paperwork and help with office mailings. Both long- and short-term assistance is needed.

Special Events
Volunteers are needed to assist with agency special events, which take place year-round and include Brainiac Ball, Ice Ball, Holiday Assistance and Care Card. Duties can include event planning and coordination, networking with area businesses, public relations and gift solicitation.

If you would like to become a volunteer, please call Erin Studebaker at (918) 560-1308.
