Foster Grandparent Program 
  • Thirty-eight percent of our Foster Grandparent volunteers serve 30 to 40 hours per week (more than double the minimum time commitment of 5 hours per week)!  
  • These volunteers are represented at 43 different sites in Northern Nevada and are under supervision of teachers, counselors, and detention personnel.  Sites include Title 1 schools K-12, KidsKottage, Jan Evans Juvenile Services, Boys and Girls Club of the Truckee Meadows (and Mason Valley), TruVista Family Drug Court, and the Washoe County District’s Truancy Department.  
  • The goals are to help children meet academic goals, improve social development, and remain engaged in school. 
  • Grandparent volunteers contributed 89,000 service hours during fiscal year 2018.  The estimated value of their service is $2,263,270 (Independent Sector, 2018, Value of Volunteer Hour/Nevada = $25.43)
