Youth Street Outreach Team
ORGANIZATION: YOUTH HAVEN MINISTRIES INC
Please visit the new page to apply.

Go where the youth are. Be a presence. Make a difference.
We’re building a bold and compassionate Youth Outreach Team - volunteers who are willing to meet teens where they’re at: parks, skate parks, basketball courts, malls, school events, and more. If you care about young people and want to be a consistent, positive presence in their world, we want you on our team.
What you'll do:
Visit local hangouts where youth naturally gather
Hand out free water bottles, resource cards, and fun giveaways
Build trust by listening, encouraging, and engaging in real conversation
Let teens know about our upcoming events, groups, and support services
Refer them to local help when needed (we’ll train you!)
Be available for spiritual conversation - but only when teens bring it up
Important safety guidelines:
Outreach teams will include both male and female volunteers
No volunteer will be left alone with youth at any time
All volunteers must pass a background check and complete a brief training
What we’re looking for:
Friendly, approachable individuals who genuinely care about youth
Reliable, mature team players who can engage without judgment or pressure
Willingness to go into public spaces and interact respectfully with teens
Comfortable representing our organization and inviting youth to connect
Why join the team?
Be part of a movement that meets youth where they are
Make real, face-to-face impact - no experience required
Flexible hours, always working in pairs or teams
Training, mentorship, and spiritual support provided
Great for those with a heart for ministry, mentoring, or community service
This is grassroots, relational outreach - the kind that changes lives one conversation at a time. If you’ve ever wanted to be there for teens who feel unseen, this is your chance. Let’s go.

Description
Youth Haven Ministries is a grassroots 501(c)(3) nonprofit that’s been serving youth and families since 2017-first in Florida, then South Carolina, and now in West Virginia. We exist to create safe, welcoming spaces for teens who feel overlooked, anxious, or alone. We do this in the name of Jesus, following His example of unconditional love letting our actions speak louder than words. There’s no pressure and no judgment.
You don’t have to be religious. Our programs are open to everyone-no matter your background, beliefs, identity, or lifestyle. No pressure. No strings attached.
From free game nights and "Real Talk" hangouts to concerts and community picnics, we build spaces where teens feel at home. In 2019, our Florida teen center grew from 2 to over 60 teens, simply because they knew they were cared for. In South Carolina, we serve youth and families in crisis with dignity and compassion. And now, we’re bringing that same heart to West Virginia.
