A Message From Jennifer Coats-Snyder
I work for a mental health board and heard that during the Covid epidemic, volunteers were lost and they were in need. When I heard the success rate (46% are less likely to begin using drugs, 52% less likely to skip school) I was impressed. I initially wanted a girl but they felt that I would be a better match for a 9 year old boy. I think he has helped me more during this stressful time than I him. It has been great spending time with someone who is so full of energy and life, going to the zoo, taking walks in the park, and listening to what is going on in his life.
