Many buddy pairs enjoy eating lunch together, going to school sporting events together, or hanging out after school. Additionally, buddy pairs will make plans to get together twice a month. Each matched buddy pair makes a commitment to contact each other once a week this can be by talking in school, connecting by phone, text, email, social media, etc. The Best Buddies program matches a volunteer with an intellectual or developmental disability (buddy) in a one-to-one friendship with a volunteer without an intellectual or developmental disability (peer buddy).
