Presbyterian Children’s Homes and Services (PCHAS)— Casondra Brown

Greetings St. John’s: I want to thank you for your continued support and encouragement. Without you the Houston Child and Family Program with Presbyterian Children’s Homes and Services would not be able to provide Christ-centered services to children and families in need.
I would like to tell you about two volunteer opportunities that are available with the Houston Child and Family Program. I am hoping to expand my client base by asking trained and qualified volunteers to perform a variety of services on an irregular basis. The volunteers must be flexible in their schedules; willing to use their personal vehicle for voluntary transporting of clients; able to take direction and supervision from the Child and Family Specialist; be discreet in their behavior and dress; possess the ability to keep information confidential; and attend an 8-hour training session.

1. Administrative/Family Aid Volunteer: Driving clients to appointments with doctors or counselors. Supervising children during parenting classes. Organizing events. Working in the office with client files

2. Professional Service Volunteer-Pro-bono Legal Service: Be willing to provide legal consultation to clients in need. Assist in helping clients understand rights in various situations. Represent clients in court for various situations.

If you are interested in learning more about volunteer requirements and stipulations, please contact me (713-721-2908). Thank you.
