Volunteers

Parents Helping Parents (PHP) is unusual in that all services are provided by trained volunteers.  While a significant number of volunteer counselors have a background in social work or counseling, this is not a requirement.

 

There are only two qualifications to be a PHP volunteer: 

  • Have an empathetic personality; and
  • Be non-judgmental towards the variety of ways in which parents relate to their children.

PHP’s volunteer counseling positions  offer unusually challenging opportunities to people who want to help others.  Thus the volunteers who get involved in PHP’s programs are highly motivated.  PHP’s training provides the volunteers with the skills they need to facilitate a Parent Support Group or to take calls to the Parental Stress Line.  PHP prides itself in excellent ongoing training and 24-hour support for volunteers.
