Thank You for your interest in Mayor Quan's Volunteers Initiative

Your willingness to help youths is very much appreciated. To assure success in school, and life beyond, some of our youths need a little extra support and guidance from a caring adult like you. Because of extreme economic times and severely depressed school district budgets, youths do not receive all the help needed. The evidence tells us each youth with a caring adult in his/her life gets better grades in school, is less likely to use drugs, resists gang involvement, is forward thinking and plans for a successful and productive life.

For information on the various volunteer programs click the links below. Upon selecting a program, you can complete an on line application. Then you will receive an information packet by email with the instructions for the clearance process.  Training is offered for all programs.

For the safety of our youths, all volunteers must be screened and will be asked to bear the cost of fingerprinting and TB screening.

Again, we thank you very much for your participation. Our youths do need your help!
