VOLUNTEER

Would you like to give back to some of the most vulnerable youth in our city? If you are 19+, you are welcome to share some of your time, energy, and love by volunteering at our Drop-In Services Centre.

Some of our volunteer opportunities do not include direct interaction with our youth clients, some do. There are many ways to help and share your skills and strengths.

We also welcome groups to volunteer—teams, community groups, and colleagues from work.
