Habitat for Humanity MetroWest/Greater Worcester has little success in attracting youth volunteers to their efforts due to age and legal constraints. Our team conducted interviews, focus groups, and directly participated in Habitat volunteer opportunities to discover the best ways of engaging local youth and attracting young volunteers to Habitat. We created a list of age-appropriate activities that Habitat can offer local youth that will get them involved and interested in Habitat’s mission.
