Community Health Resources Friend to Friend program is looking for volunteers living in the Manchester, CT area to befriend adults living in their home communities who are recovering from mental illness. Volunteers spend 2 to 4 hours per week with a partner, sharing such activities as going shopping, bowling or to a movie. Volunteers are not expected to provide counseling or other mental health services to their partners. Program training is provided. Volunteers and their partners receive a stipend each month to help defray the cost of community activities.
