The age requirement varies per opportunity. Check the age requirements stated on the opportunity you are interested in before signing up.

The account holder must be 18 years old or up. The account holder is accepting waivers for themselves and any members on their account. All minors must be on their parent/guardian’s account. Minors are prohibited from creating an individual account due to the waivers that must be accepted by an adult.

No, group leaders (e.g., for scout troops, school clubs) cannot create an account for his/her group.  Each volunteer must be registered individually, and minors who want to volunteer must be connected to their parent or guardian’s account.

As a parent/ guardian, when you first create an account, you will have the opportunity to add your family members to your account and accept the waiver on their behalf.

To add members to an existing account, log in to your account and follow the steps below.

Volunteer dashboard -> Click “My Family” -> Click “New Member” -> After filling out the required information, click “Save member.”

Do not add individuals who are not your family members to your account.

The requirements for each volunteer opportunity vary. Not all projects require a parent or guardian to volunteer with their minor. Check the age requirement section of each posted opportunity to see if a parent/guardian is mandatory for that project.

Yes, absolutely. Bring your community service form when you volunteer and City staff will sign off on your hours at the end of your scheduled shift.  If you do not have a form, documentation can be provided upon email request.
