Supporting Children in Shelter<br />
Parents are responsible for<br />
their children.<br />
<strong>Volunteer</strong>s can never be alone with children of<br />
any age. All children under the age of 6 must be<br />
supervised at all times by their parents. Older<br />
children do not have to be in their parent’s sight at<br />
all times, but it is their parents’ job to supervise<br />
them.<br />
<strong>FPM</strong> is a “mandated reporter” of<br />
suspected incidents of abuse or<br />
neglect. If a volunteer suspects a<br />
child is being mistreated or<br />
neglected, they should<br />
immediately communicate their<br />
concerns to our Program Director<br />
(see page 70).<br />
