Families
as
Partners
When
it comes
to the
future
of our
children
and the
well-being
of our
communities,
we’re
all in
this
together.
So it
should
come as
no
surprise
that we
need the
parents
and
guardians
of
Littles
to be
involved
every
step of
the way,
starting
with the
initial
match.
Not only
will you
provide
information
about
your
child’s
strengths
and
needs,
but
you’ll
also
approve
the
selection
of the
Big
Brother
or Big
Sister.
Once the
match is
made,
you
remain
closely
involved
in many
ways,
including:
-
Approving activities and
outings for your child and
their Big
-
Asking your child questions
about those outings, and
sharing what you learn with
the agency staff
-
Reporting your child’s
progress and milestones to
the agency on a regular
basis (Big Brothers Big
Sisters will contact you,
but we welcome your feedback
any time)
-
Participating in training on
child safety offered by Big
Brothers Big Sisters staff,
and communicating with your
child about the training he
or she receives
