Here are some specific ways you can get involved with YoungLives Huntington Beach:
Mentor
Walk with a teen mom or dad for one school year. This often looks like doing things together such as going to the park, sharing your story with them or helping them register for college classes. Your mentor relationship depends on you and your mentee’s needs and can often look different from person to person.
Commitment: Meet twice monthly with your mentee, attend Club (3rd Thursday of each month), and mentor meetings (2nd Thursday of each month). Complete and pass a background check, driver questionnaire and faith and conduct agreement.
Childcare
Love holding babies or playing with toddlers? This is the perfect place for you to serve. We offer childcare at our once a month clubs and at special occasions (like prom).
Commitment: Once a month, be on a team of women who help watch babies and toddlers while their moms and dads enjoy a craft, music, and speaker. Club happens the 3rd Thursday of each month in Huntington Beach. Once a year, help with YoungLives Prom childcare. Complete and pass a background check and sign a faith and conduct agreement.
