Youth Volunteers

Carla and Deanna YEP

We welcome youth volunteers of all ages for a variety of shifts!

Click here to review the youth volunteer guidelines and our volunteer waiver. Due to the nature of the work involved, most volunteer opportunities are not appropriate for youth younger than 9 years old. All youth volunteers ages 9 to 15 require a parent or guardian to volunteer with them.

Only parents/guardians can register youthPlease click here to fill out our registration form for your household, and watch this video to help your youth get registered.
