Volunteer
Volunteers are an essential part of Children’s Advocacy Center of Collin County. We are incredibly grateful for the numerous hours spent by our volunteers. Their organization and maintenance of the Center and event coordination enables us to provide services for our clients year-round.
Due to the sensitive and confidential nature of our work, we do not have individual volunteer opportunities working directly with the children we serve.
Volunteer Requirements:
- Due to the sensitive nature of our work, volunteers must be 18 years of age and have completed high school
- All volunteers must receive comprehensive training
- An interview
- Must pass a criminal and Family and Protective Services background check
For volunteer inquiries, please email: [email protected]

They are a volunteer puppet troop and a project of Children’s Advocacy Center of Collin County.
