We are in the process of evaluating and re-designing our volunteer program. Because of that we have made the difficult decision to not recruit for a 2025 cohort of Youth Volunteers. See below to stay in touch and find other opportunities in the area.

We\u2019re Re-imagining Our Program<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

At The Lawrence we pride ourselves on being an adaptable organization that changes and evolves as the scientific and educational landscape shifts over the years. After over a decade, we have decided it was time to evaluate and modify our Youth Volunteer program to best fit the needs of our volunteers and learning communities. We have made the difficult decision to pause our recruiting efforts and we will not be having a Summer 2025 new cohort of youth volunteers. During this time we will be preparing to launch a re-imagined Youth Volunteer program in 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the meantime, there are many awesome organizations in and around the Bay Area offering a variety of both year-round and Summer youth programs including volunteer opportunities, youth camps and workshops (both free and paid), leadership development programs, and more! . To help you get started, we compiled a list of organizations and some helpful links below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please note:<\/strong> at the time we are posting this (Dec 2024), some applications are open, and some are still to come. As time goes by, some of the opportunities listed below may no longer be available<\/p>\n\n\n\n
