Volunteers are "on-call" 2-3 days a month, and must call their referral within 24 hours of contact with our volunteer coorindator. Following the call, volunteers complete a short online assessment form of the conversation so it can be forwarded to the appropriate ATFS counselor for follow up. *Volunteers will not call referrals from their county of residence in order to protect the confidentiality of families.*
Please complete our volunteer interest form and ATFS staff will be in contact with you soon.
