Recorded Program
How can libraries empower teens to help others? How can schools engage students in community-based service work during the regular school day? How can young people develop their own initiatives that impact their communities? Go beyond basic volunteer tasks for service hours; be inspired by youth who run charity drives, find new lives for prom dresses, tutor elementary students, and more!
