The TeleFriend program is customized to meet your child’s needs. Before the program begins, we will interview and match one kid, a youth volunteer, and one adult volunteer to be on your child’s team, providing them with friendship and support. After we find the perfect volunteers for your kid, they will meet online to explore their common interests and spend valuable time together. Friends talk, play games, rest stories, enjoy activities, create long term connections and more.
These online hangouts are accessible from anywhere, no matter where you are located in the country. Your child will meet with their friends during weekly, one hour sessions that are held during weekdays after school. Each program series runs for 5-8 weeks, depending on the season. InTouch offers multiple series throughout the year, and your kid can participate in several series.
