There are many opportunities for youth to receive support from the Project's services, and there are also opportunities to volunteer.
Ally Card Data Entry: A database has been created to record all those in the Ally Card system in order to in better communication with the growing numbers. This volunteer opportunity would involve entering the remaining form into the database.

Database creation: The Youth Project would like to create a database to start entering its library into to better serve the community.

Library Data entry: Once database has been developed we would like to have interested volunteers to begin the process of entering in all books and movies into a database to be posed on the Internet.

Computer Maintainer: If there is anyone who is knowledgeable on computers and would like to assist the Youth Project when problems arise would be very helpful.

Youth Board Members! Any and all youth 25 and under are welcome to join the youth board and plan some awesome leadership/community events, activities and learn the processes of youth governance. Check out the Youth volunteer application below or contact us: youthproject@youthproject.ns.ca
