College Buddy
A college student willing to commit to a one-to-one friendship with a person with intellectual or developmental disabilities for one academic year. The current CBD will match you with a Buddy. You're required to see your Buddy at least twice a month, contact your Buddy at least once a week, attend all group events and meetings, and complete monthly Friendship Updates at the online chapter portal (www.bestbuddiesonline.org). If interested, a college buddy may also hold an officer position.
 
Associate Member
