Teen Peer Mentor Volunteer Opportunity

Diversity adds to the program, and we invite peers to participate in SARRC’s CommunityWorks program weekly. We seek peers who value and want to practice teamwork, respect, collaboration and learning.  Peer Mentors also gain an understanding of neurodiversity and learn more about those who may be different from themselves. Teens will also benefit from:

• An experience that can be used in a resume or college application.
• Connecting with businesses in your community.
• Volunteer hours may be used for school requirements.

For more information on program dates or to register as a Peer Mentor please contact a member of our Family Resource Team at 602.606.9806 or contact us online.This
