Youth Leadership

​Our summer Youth Leadership Program allows middle school and high school students to develop leadership skills and to become Teen Co-leads / Teen Leads for our Family Volunteering activities. Through this program, they stay on our service pathway and help to inspire the next generation of volunteers and community leaders. 

Teens take on a leadership role in our organization positioning them for lifelong community leadership.

​Register your family with Generation SERVE to receive communications about year-round opportunities for teens and check out our Teen Service page ​for other teen service opportunities.
