Teen Volunteer Program Virtual Info Session

Not Your Average Jewish Teen Volunteer Experience

Do you or does a teen you know want to make a difference in the lives of students with disabilities and diverse learning needs? Looking for a fun, meaningful way to earn community service hours and build lifelong skills? If you are a Boston-area teen in grades 10 – 12, you can apply to volunteer at Gateways’ Accessible Hebrew School on Sundays!

Our Teen Volunteer Program isn’t your average volunteer experience. What makes our program stand out is not the skillset you’ll gain or the volunteer hours you’ll collect, but the relationships that you’ll build with students as you support them in experiencing a Jewish education that is accessible, joyful, and meaningful.

Volunteers receive weekly training and support from on-site special education teachers and administrators, learning valuable skills they can take with them to college and beyond.

Gateways’ Teen Volunteer Program is holding three informational sessions over Zoom. Prospective teen volunteers for the 2026-27 school year will meet with Gateways staff to learn about the program and find out more about the application process. Teens who will be in 10th-12th grade in the fall of 2026 are eligible to attend.
