Make a Difference. Volunteer at Billy's Place.

FACILITATOR

Facilitators walk alongside grieving children, teens, or adults. Volunteers serve with the “littles,” “middles,” “teens,” or “adults,” providing families a safe environment during support group nights in a small group setting. 

All volunteers attend a comprehensive training designed to help prepare them for the year ahead. You will learn many tools to help not only our families, but also yourself in this journey.  Consistency in volunteers is very important to Billy’s Place and the families we serve. Continuing education of three hours per year is required to further enhance your skills.
