The purpose of the program is to provide good role models for young students in the community. Students work with a partner, either of their choice or of random selection. One of the two should have access to transportation. The partnership is then assigned a youth that they have the opportunity to befriend. Volunteers are asked to meet with their young friend once a week.
Volunteers have the opportunity to choose how they wish to spend time with their new friend.
Activities may include helping with homework, playing games, or watching movies. Once a month, Access will organize a super-activity for all participants. These are good events for volunteers to attend with their friend. This program serves elementary and junior high school special education students. This helps special education students develop and refine coordination.
