The Children's Healthcare of Atlanta College Volunteer Program offers currently enrolled college students a 12‑week volunteer experience (typically fall and spring semesters, not summer). Participants support patients, families and staff via one weekly three‑hour shift, with up to three excused absences allowed. Accepted students must meet requirements including age (18+), enrollment status, background check, immunization proof, flu vaccination and TB testing. Mandatory orientation sessions precede start, and final placement hinges on application and a required assessment.
