Best Buddies Colleges
As a Best Buddies chapter member, what is my role with e-Buddies?
- Teach your Buddy to use email, and help him/her get an email address at a site such as Yahoo or Hotmail, if necessary.
- Encourage your chapter members to teach their Buddies to use email.
- If your Buddy becomes proficient with email, and is interested, help him or her sign up for e-Buddies.

Here's how to get your chapter involved in e-Buddies!
- Talk with your College Buddies about e-Buddies.
- Demonstrate how to use the Internet and e-mail.
- Plan an outing to the library or computer lab.
- Suggest that one-to-one outings include Internet time.
- Once Buddies are comfortable with email, include them in chapter-wide email lists.
- Ask special education teachers or host site coordinators to include email time in the classroom.
- Encourage Buddies to spend time on their own using email and the Internet, if possible.
