Dedicated Family Placement

Generation SERVE offers teens and parents the opportunity to develop deeper connections to our nonprofit partners and the clients they serve with Dedicated Family Placements! These opportunities vary, but they always involve a training and a commitment to multiple days of service. Dedicated Family Placements build teens' skills while they log significant service hours AND provide our partners with trained and committed volunteers!

Summer Dedicated Family Placement Opportunities at McKinney Falls

Generation SERVE teens and parents participate together, providing visitor education on water safety and drowning prevention at McKinney Falls State Park. This placement is a great fit for teens who like to meet new people, spend time outdoors and gain leadership experience. This program is a partnership with Colin's Hope, an organization that provides water safety and drowning prevention education, and Texas Parks & Wildlife, which preserves and manages the state's parks.

It is FREE to participate, but we suggest a donation of $100 per family to help cover the cost of training, supplies, and facilitation.

All events take place at McKinney Falls State Park

Program requirements:

Must attend training
Must sign up for at least three service dates throughout the summer
Parent & teen participate together

Stay tuned for registration to open for summer 2021!
