Matching Assistance Program Assistant
A Family For Every Child
Our Matching Assistance Program (MAP) is a password protected site for home study approved families seeking to adopt from foster care.
Candidates will assist the program in a variety of ways such as research that will benefit the growth of the program, marketing emails, fliers, social media posts as well as day to day tasks associated with managing the program.
In addition to the Matching Assistance Program, some volunteers may work directly with families to provide one-on-one support with their family profile, making recommendations to assist families as well as family recruitment services, and searching for available children that may meet some of the family's preferences. This is a great opportunity to work with a nationally recognized program to meet the needs of prospective adoptive families nationwide.
3-6-9 month minimum commitment with rolling start dates
6 to 12 hours per week

Mission Statement
A Family for Every Child is dedicated to finding loving, permanent families for every waiting foster child." Our intention is to develop programs that assist special-needs/challenging-to-place foster children in finding their own Forever Families.
Description
A Family For Every Child, a nonprofit organization, was started by Christy Obie-Barrett and dozens of dedicated and passionate volunteers. In 2006, AFFEC was formed and developed into an organization focused on finding permanent and loving adoptive homes for Oregon's waiting children. We started with our first project called The Heart Gallery in November, 2006, and now we have blossomed into ten incredibly successful programs. None of this could have occurred without the wonderful support from thousands of volunteers, sponsors, in-kind donors, photographers, and many more!
