Volunteer Training

Volunteer club leaders receive interactive training four times a year with an end-of-the-club year celebration in May. Volunteers learn about topics related to youth development, club operations, risk management, communication methods, life skills, and more! If a volunteer is unable to attend a leader training, the agents make time to meet with them individually. Agents and program staff are available to answer questions and offer support as well.
