The Sun Valley Youth Center has a middle and highschool Train Lead Succeed program! We are looking for volunteers to help our youth in middle and highschool with daily homework help, as well as basic study skills. Many of our youth just need small amounts of help and this would be a great place to lend a hand if you also are working on homework you could bring it along and study alongside the youth.
In addition to this, our facility is all about connection, so the middle/high schoolers spend a lot of time playing games and just hanging out/connecting. With that, they like volunteers to come in for more 1 on 1 attention as well as volunteers coming to just hang out with them.
This is a drop in program and we currently have 15-20 youth showing up nightly to hang out and get their homework completed. If you are able to help out, please contact us via email diamond@sunvalleyyouthcenter.org
