Volunteer Screening Process

Anyone interested in volunteering with the Children’s Advocacy Center of the Bluegrass must complete a screening process. All potential volunteers must complete a volunteer application and provide at least three references. They must also possess a high school diploma or GED. Potential volunteers will be required to complete a criminal and child protective services background check.

Student Interns

The Children’s Advocacy Center accepts student interns for college practicum courses requiring fifteen or more hours per week. Student interns are supervised by a Masters level social worker. Anyone interested in an internship at the CAC may contact Tracy Perkins at (859) 225-5437 for further information or to request a student application. A copy of your ID is necessary to conduct the required background check before beginning any service at the CAC.
