"Teen volunteer programs are pointless because I’ll spend all my time explaining tasks and they don’t commit anyway. It’s easier to do everything myself."

Not so fast, friend! Learn a successful teen volunteering model that develops teen agency and benefits you! This primarily self-sustaining project-based teen volunteer program goes far beyond the Teen Advisory Board. Used wisely, your volunteer program will let you reclaim your time, develop your leadership skills, and keep teens involved.
