Teen Volunteer Training Program

Join Mass Audubon for a volunteer training opportunity for teens with instructors from Joppa Flats Education Center in Newburyport Massachusetts!

Teen Volunteers recieve full training on how to assist staff with our public programs featuring live beach creatures and pollinators like butterflies and moths. These young people act as role models for our young visitors and are passionate about learning all about local ecosystems and want to share their knowledge with others on how to protect the environment.

Training includes a half-day on the beach, a half-day orientation at Joppa Flats and a full run-through of our Meet Beach Creatures program. Teens will choose three half-day shifts to apply their training in the month of July.

Interested youth must participate in an informal "meet and greet" with a parent or guardian to answer questions and learn more about their role with our programs.
