Do you know what you're doing when it comes to soil and seeds? We're looking for an experienced gardener who would enjoy helping YouthCare upkeep their vegetable gardens at one of the transitional living programsfor homeless youth. This not only shows youth you care about them, but also allows them to have healthy, fresh produce throughout the year! And there may even be a chance to teach gardening to a young person!

YouthCare builds confidence and self-sufficiency for homeless youth by providing a continuum of care that includes outreach, basic services, emergency shelter, housing, counseling, education, and employment training.

Description

Founded in 1974, YouthCare was the first shelter for homeless youth in the Western United States and continues to be a leader in providing services to this vulnerable population.
