Adolescents throughout the Southern Tier are encouraged to volunteer locally as a protective factor. Volunteering and being involved in areas of interest, is not only rewarding, but will also develop life skills and instill a sense of community pride. Organizations across the Southern Tier offer volunteer opportunities specifically for youth – ranging from one-time events to weekly commitments. Whether you are interested in volunteering with animals, children, peers – or any other focus area! - opportunities are available for whatever you are passionate about!  

Get out, give help, grow you.
