When it comes to fun, the Family Service Association Big Friends / Little Friends program means business!  The staff, adult mentors, and young mentees can frequently be found traveling throughout our region, enjoying exciting recreational and educational events. Family Service Association established the Big Friends Little Friends program because children need the friendship of a concerned adult to help them reach their full potential. The "Big Friends" and their "Little Friends" enjoy lots of activities. They talk, laugh, play and just have fun! The young participants in the program are boys and girls from 7 to 14 years of age who are looking for the guidance that can be provided by an adult mentor in their life. The adult participants are men and women aged 18 or older who are willing to share some of their time with a young person. More information about the program can be obtained by calling Katje Fuson at 508-730-1138, X3155 or by e-mailing BFLF@frfsa.org,
