Foster Grandparent Program
Foster Grandparent volunteers work with children who are at-risk or have special needs. Volunteers are placed in schools, hospitals, correctional institutions, Head Start, and day care centers. The heart of the program is the one-to-one daily attention that Foster Grandparents provide and the sense of hope they foster in the hearts of children. Call 764-1612 for more information or to volunteer.
