Training for Families & Teens
Volunteer USA offers research-based trainings and materials that help parents inspire their young children to love learning, as well as provide youth trainings to encourage teens to become involved with preparing and responding to disaster situations, such as hurricanes or other emergencies that may impact their own communities, schools or entire cities.
“Parents are a child's first teacher and literacy programs like Love, Read, Learn! are a great way to give parents the tools they need to engage their children in age-appropriate learning from the very beginning,” Dr. Julie McCargar, Executive Director of Federal Programs for the Tennessee Department of Education.
“Teens can actively and successfully have a role in the preparedness, response, and recovery of their community after a disaster. Volunteer USA Teen CERT can harness their energy and power to the benefit of their friends, family, and schools.” —Anne M., Florida Teen CERT Trainer
