Program Description

Event Details

Earn service hours while helping your community with the Teen Summer of Service program. This six week series introduces participants to a variety of agencies that provide services throughout the community and offers the opportunity for teens to provide solutions that can make Lee County even better!

 

Each one hour program will include a short presentation by the guest speaker and breakout group discussions and activities. Presenters will offer several options for service projects that you can complete in your space and at a time that is convenient for you. The six-week program concludes on July 29 with a Q&A with Jefferson Award for Public Service honoree Greg Forbes Siegman.* All teens that register will receive a signed copy of his book "The First Thirty" and the companion workbook, "A Place to Sit."
