Youth Volunteers

We have a number of volunteer opportunities for youth

1.High School Placement

High School students who are 14 years of age or older are eligible to apply for the High School Volunteer Program. The program is a great opportunity to be immersed in the community services environment while earning hours for community involvement. Volunteers will have the chance to learn about Frontlines, the youth and families it serves, and the many services it offers throughout the year.

(See Post Secondary Placement under Adult Volunteers)

2.Community Service volunteering (Justice)- There are a variety of services available to people who need their community hours specifically people who are under community supervision through probation and parole at any level whether that be youth or adults. This service is designed to assists offenders to correct or change behaviours. This is intended to help with life skills, rehabilitation, education, and work programs. We at frontlines believe anyone can make a change, help us help you.
