Child Welfare Workers are on the front lines of seeking permanency and safety for vulnerable families, children, and communities. This often means they are right in the middle of the chaos and heartache of broken lives. Their work is demanding, stressful, and they are often under-resourced and over-burdened. The average caseload recommended per social worker is 12-15, but the average worker has 24-31 cases. Most agencies are experiencing significant turnover and burnout! Social Star connects individuals and small groups to a Child Welfare social worker to provide simple monthly words of encouragement, gestures of support, and recognition as they work on behalf of vulnerable children in our region. Social Workers are busy, so these forms of encouragement need to look like thoughtful emails, letters, flowers from your yard, a candy bar, a $5 coffee card, etc. Your role is to simply remind them they are seen, doing a good job, and they are important. Currently, there are 10+ child welfare workers in Fredericksburg / Spotsy waiting to be paired with a church volunteer. We ask all volunteers to make a one-year commitment to providing monthly encouragement for their social worker.
Here's a volunteer request for "Don't Go Alone": Do you have a heart for mentorship and a desire to make a lasting impact? **Don't Go Alone**, a mentoring program through Project Belong VA, is looking for dedicated volunteers to support youth aging out of foster care. With one of the highest rates of youth aging out in the nation, Virginia faces a critical need for mentors willing to walk alongside these young adults, offering guidance, friendship, and spiritual support as they navigate this next chapter of life. As a mentor, you'll provide consistent, long-term support, helping these youth find hope, stability, and purpose. We believe God is using this program to profoundly impact their lives, and we'd love for you to be a part of this mission. **Interested in joining us?** Sign up to volunteer or learn more today. An application packet, background check, and 4 hours of virtual training are required prior to being matched with a mentee.
