Purpose
Our TAG (Teen Advisory Group) is a group of youth volunteers looking to make a difference in their community, connect with others, and learn how to support the community!
TAG is open to all teens ages 13–18 attending Trumbull schools who are interested in volunteering with the health department to organize community events for middle school and high school students.
The purpose of this group is to promote the importance of prevention and public health in relation to teens.
- Give teens a voice
- Demonstrate that adults care and listen
- Show teens that they are important and that they can contribute in a meaningful way
- Give us the teen perspective
Members meet during the school year to work on service projects and advise public health staff on teen programs. Service hours are given for all meetings and activities attended. Activities include planning and coordinating events appropriate for school-age kids and seniors.
This will also include:
- Focus groups
- Social media assistance
- Liaison between schools and the health department
- Event planning
We are no longer accepting applications- we are full. Please check back in the Fall!
