History of Big Brothers Big Sisters (19).png

As a parent/guardian, you recognize the potential of your child better than anyone. By giving your child the opportunity to be part of Big Brothers Big Sisters, you’re starting them down a path to an even brighter, more promising future.

Parent/Guardian Involvement

You know what’s best for your child. So we’ll need your help from the start, providing information about your child’s strengths and needs, and ultimately approving the Big Brother or Big Sister match. But your role doesn’t end there.

Safety From the Start

Your child's safety is extremely important to us. Big Brothers Big Sisters conducts a thorough background check on every volunteer in our program, and every relationship is closely monitored and supported by a professionally trained match coordinator. 

You'll Feel the Impact as Much as Your Child

 A study for Big Brothers Big Sisters found that kids matched with a Big:

are more confident

are more likely to steer clear of drugs and alcohol

do better in school

get along better with their family and friends

feel better about themselves*
