	Board of Directors

There is also an expectation for all board members to participate in a committee that will help move the agency's mission forward. Those meetings are typically once every month or every other month.
	Meal (preparation or provision)
	The Spot (after-school homework help) program is seeking volunteers to help provide meals to the teens in attendance on Monday evenings. Meals are provided at approximately 5pm. This is a great opportunity for a small group to volunteer if they are lacking time to do something on a regular basis through one of our other opportunities. Sign up today to provide meals once a month, once a quarter or even once a year. Every little bit will help us achieve our goals.
	Study Skills Partner/Mentor
	Volunteers work beside young persons (pregnant and parenting teens or teens at large) to help encourage them to complete assignments on time, thoroughly and to the best of their abilities. Volunteers may sign up to do this weekly in 2-4 hour shifts on Mondays between 3:30 and 7:30pm. Shifts are available every week to once a month. No special skills are required. This is not a tutoring program. We will provide volunteers resources to connect students with tutors who are available in the community through other resources.
