SisterFriend Recruitment Drive Building Foundations…Transforming Lives
Our Mission Project Concern Indianapolis, Inc. is a non-profit, community-based organization whose mission is to promote health, social, academic and economic achievement of women, children and families.
Who We Are • Indianapolis Birthing Project (IBP) is a mentoring program that accepts pregnant women of all ages, races and circumstances. • IBP provides direction, support and advocacy necessary for these women to obtain medical and social services. • These services continue for one year after the birth of their child.
Why ? IBP is based on the premise that a woman with social and medical support is more likely to have a healthy baby.
How can you help ? • Become a SisterFriend • SisterFriends are volunteers who have made a commitment to mentor expectant mothers (LittleSisters) • to provide emotional support • help build self esteem.

What do I need to do • Complete and returned the application along with the processing fee of $25 • Our Project Coordinator will call to schedule an orientation. • The orientation will take approximately 30 minutes and should be done within 2-4 business days after receiving the application.
What should I expect • During orientation the SF will receive a packet that includes: • Components of IBP • A Community Resource manual • 2 copies of the SisterFriend Requirements (one to sign for the IBP office, and one to keep for future reference) • 20 Positive Ways to Mentor • What If?...
How do I get matched • If there is a wait list for matches and a LS is available for immediate matching, the Project Coordinator will provide the match information to the SF during the orientation based on specific criteria she listed on the application. • If the SF agrees to the match the LS will be informed about the match and given contact information about her SF. • SisterFriends are required to contact her LS within 2-3 days and notify the IBP office once contact has been made.
What else can I do ? • As part of the your SisterFriend commitment we ask that you support a committee or task within the PCI organization. • Therefore we ask that you share your time and talents to help us improve and build Project Concern Indianapolis.
