 VOLUNTEERS

Extreme Family Outreach is made possible by many volunteers that are willing to give their gifts and talents to help build a generation of children that believe that their present curcumstance does not have to dictate their future.

Volunteer Policy

The distrubing traumatic rise of physical and sexual abuse of children has claimed the attention of our nation and society.  The following policies reflect our commitment to provide protective care of all children, youth and volunteers who participate in the EFO sponsored activities
       1)   Adults who have been convicted of either child sexual or physical abuse should not 
             volunteer service in any EFO sponsored activity or program for children or youth. 
       2)   Adult survivors of childhood sexual or physical abuse need the love and acceptance of 
             this outreach.  Individuals who have such a history should discuss their desire to work
             with children with one of the staff prior to engaging in volunteer services. 
       3)   Adult volunteers should abserve the "two adult" rule.  This requires that adults are
              never alone with children without an adult partner. 
       4)   Adult volunteers should immediately report any behavior which seems abusive or 
             inappropriate to a EFO staff member. 
       5)   Adult volunteers tht transport any equipment or supplies must have a valid driver's 
             license. 
       6)   Adult volunteers are asked for information on all previous work involving children.
       7)   Volunteers must provide a minimum of two personal references. 
       8)   All volunteers are subject to personal and criminal background checks.
