Growing Hope for the Community

Kelsey W., Lindsay B., Emily R. & Our Lollipop Tree

On Saturday, March 5th, Scotty's House participated in the St. Andrews Spring Festival, Growing Hope for the Community. We were one of several agencies represented at the event, which included games and crafts for children and families. We were happy to debut our new Lollipop Tree, which was a big hit with the kids! Scotty's House would like to thank Intern Lindsay B., and Volunteers Laney D., J'wan P., Emily R. and Kelsey W. for attending the festival. THANK YOU!!

Thank You, Thetas!

On Saturday, February 26th, the Kappa Alpha Thetas of Texas A&M University helped us with some much needed cleaning and organizing around our agency. They spruced-up our play therapy rooms, disinfected our toys and put together the tables and chairs for our Community Room. They did an awesome job! Thank you Thetas!!!

Scotty's House will hold a Family Care Volunteer Training this February. Family Care Volunteers welcome clients and their families to Scotty's House.

Family Care Volunteers provide supervision for clients of Scotty's House in a fun, child-friendly setting. In addition, Family Care Volunteers may also provide supervision for clients at counseling sessions, as well as play therapy support for our counselors. These Volunteers must be available during the week, usually between the hours of 9:00am to 5:00pm.
