Directions

HAND’s volunteer training is for parents, family and friends interested in supporting HAND by volunteering in various ways including:

• facilitating meetings*
• offering peer support to parents with a recent loss
• serving on our Board of Directors
• doing outreach to local hospitals and healthcare providers
• managing our website (using WordPress)
• providing administrative support

The training is free and lunch will be provided.

The morning session (9:00-11:30) will be a general orientation for all new volunteers.
The afternoon session (12:00-3:00) will cover peer support and facilitating meetings.

New volunteers wanting to provide peer support, facilitate meetings, or make presentations should attend the whole training. Those interested only in non-direct support activities may just come to the morning session.

*Note that HAND requires that parents wait at least one year after their loss and attend support group meetings consistently before beginning the process of training to be a facilitator (exceptions may be considered for certain circumstances).

Registration is required by May 2, 2020.
