How The Volunteering Process Works

The order of the steps in the application and assessment process:

  • Completes an application with BBBSPV
  • Submits a child abuse registry check/vulnerable sector screen, criminal records check, and three or four references
  • Signs an agreement of confidentiality
  • Is interviewed by BBBSPV Staff
  • Depending on the program, may be asked to participate in an assessment of their home environment
  • Successfully completes required training
  • Is notified of their acceptance/non-acceptance
The Matching Process
  • The Intake Coordinator, now familiar with the volunteer and the children and youth waiting to be matched, discusses a potential match with the volunteer, the child or youth, and, depending on the program, with the family
  • BBBSPV Staff arranges for a meeting between the child or youth, the volunteer mentor, and  the parent or guardian

If everyone agrees, the match can begin!

    Please choose which program you hope to volunteer with. Choose all that apply.
  • Why do you want to volunteer with us?
