Wanted Family Buddies

As a family partner of STG you can mean a lot to an entire family.
STG regularly receives questions from parents with a child with a disability or from a family whose parents have a mild intellectual disability. They are then looking for extra support at home.
For example, think of:
• support in doing homework,
• extra hands during an afternoon after school or on the weekend,
• teaching (social) skills or
• go to a sports club.

During the 1 on 1 contact you are at home with the family. Playing a game, having a chat or an activity outside……… Fun, simple and above all very grateful!
Because your activities with the child have an effect on the rest of the family.

The contact can be every week, but also once.
You will be linked to someone with an intellectual disability and/or autism-related disorder. Guidance takes place in the background by a family counselor and/or STG.
The target audience can be a challenge for some people. To support you in this, we have a wide range of training courses, which you can participate in as a volunteer for free.
We are looking for someone who:

• is interested in the other
• can take initiative
• can provide clarity
• has patience and takes the time to build a relationship.

Day, time and frequency can be agreed upon in consultation.
What do you get in return?
• unforgettable moments and a beautiful smile
• you are part of an enthusiastic team of volunteers, professionals and trainees at STG/SIG.
• support from STG/SIG
• being able to attend training sessions free of charge.
• a Christmas gift and annual drink for volunteers.
