Broward County Teen Court is designed to prepare youths for tomorrow's challenges. Many volunteer positions are available for teens aged 13 years and older.

Looking for volunteers to staff our Thrift Store in Tequesta on Saturdays and during the summer. Store hours are from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and we are open Wednesday through Saturday. Choose your hours and be part of an exciting team that partners with people in need, building affordable homes in our community. Responsibilities include pricing stock, cash register, answering the phone and helping customers as needed. With the profits from our store, we are able to continue our mission helping people in need. Volunteers are also needed for construction sites (must be 16 years or older). Construction will begin at the end of September 2004 and continue through the school year.

Volunteer Opportunities may include: assisting with programs and special events; preparing crafts; shelving books and other materials; and tutoring younger children.
