Volunteers 13-17 must be accompanied by a responsible adult at all times. Please notify us of the ages of volunteers in your group so we can appropriately place your group.
We encourage you to get to know our guests and demonstrate empathy and active listening to them. If they ask for assistance or have questions, please refer them to a staff member.

Please do not give guests any direct donations, especially cash. HF has the resources to meet most guest needs once expressed, so please refer them to a staff member. However, you are welcome to bring donation items. Please contact the Volunteer Coordinator for a list of needed items.
Feel free to take pictures of the facility and your group. However, due to confidentiality, do not include the faces of our guests and interns without their consent.
Since we do not have a place to securely store belongings, please only bring what you need and can keep on you. Please also remember to stow all belongings in vehicles out of sight. HF assumes no responsibility for lost, damaged, or stolen personal property.
For your protection, please note:
We serve many types of individuals. We ask that you DO NOT exchange personal information with our guests, including, but not limited to, social media, your phone number, and where you reside. Never give them any personal information or meet with them outside of HF for both your and their safety.
Both volunteers and guests are to be treated with respect at all times. If you experience conflict with a guest, observe inappropriate behavior, or anything causes you to feel uncomfortable, please find a staff member immediately to resolve the issue. Please remain calm and understand the stress our guests are under.
We are located at 705 Virginia Avenue, Kansas City, MO 64106. Please call (816) 471-4673 for directions. Upon arrival, please park in the street on Admiral Blvd. Remember not to bring valuable items to our facility and to leave all valuables securely out of sight in your vehicle.
