3. Complete Required Trainings
Volunteering is a very important role that comes with the responsibility of keeping youth safe while in our programming. The annual training for volunteers will provide strategies and best practices for keeping both youth and volunteers safe. This training is required.
If you would like to become a certified volunteer that chaperones overnight experiences, you will also need to complete the Supporting Youth Mental Health training (3 hours online).
Health coordinators are required to complete the Basic Medication Administration training (30 minutes online).
IMPORTANT: When taking the trainings online, you are not 100% done with the training until you enter your name, email, and county at the bottom of the last page and click SUBMIT.
