About Center for Developmentally Disabled
Center for Developmentally Disabled (CDD) has created a be-friending program for adults age 16+ who live with a developmental disability. Based on input from program management and families, staff will select individuals and invite them to complete a survey that includes information on their interests and the activities they want to do with a friend. The survey information will include how often they would like to meet with talk to their friend. The agency Recreation Coordinator will oversee the program.

Information for Volunteers
CDD will work closely with the volunteer manager to create a training for volunteer be-frienders. Be-friending pairs will be matched based on mutual interests, time and availability. Be-friending volunteers will complete training prior to being matched with a friend.
