Family

Manage dependent volunteers and their schedules as a guardian.

The Family page allows guardians to manage volunteer accounts for their dependents — typically children or family members who don't have their own login.

Who Can Access This

  • Team members who are designated as guardians of managed accounts.

What You'll See

The Family page shows a card-based dashboard of your managed accounts. Each card displays:

  • Name and Relationship — the dependent's name and their relationship to you (e.g., Child, Son, Daughter).
  • Status — whether the dependent is active or inactive.
  • Ministry Qualifications — badges showing which ministries the dependent is qualified for.
  • Upcoming Assignments — the next 3 scheduled events, with a link to see more.

Managing a Dependent

Each dependent card has two action buttons:

Manage Availability

Opens the availability page for this dependent, where you can:

  • Add unavailable dates (just like your own availability).
  • Set event preferences on their behalf.

This works the same as the Availability feature, but applies to the dependent's schedule.

View Schedule & Details

Opens a detailed view showing the dependent's full schedule and profile information.

How Family Connects to Other Features

  • Volunteers — dependents are created as managed accounts on the Volunteers page with a guardian link.
  • Availability — guardians manage dependent availability through the Family page.
  • Scheduler — dependents are scheduled just like any other volunteer based on their qualifications and availability.
  • Groupings — family members are automatically grouped together.
