Community
Types

Rural
YouthWorks' rural communities are a tight-knit group of poeple,
tucked away in the prairies, the Delta, the mountains and on
the coast. At these rural sites, your group will have the opportunity
to run a YouthWorks Kids Club, as well as the opportunity to
take part in home improvement projects.
Small Town
Small town sites offer the opportunity to build close relationships
within a friendly community. Your group will have the opportunity
to lead a YouthWorks Kids Club, take part in home improvement
projects and assist already existing social service programs
such as nursing homes, kids programs or food banks.
City
The YouthWorks' city sites are a perfect introduction to ministry
in a populous area. The ministry work at these sites includes
a combination of loving kids at children's programs and providing
much needed volunteers for ministries already serving the community.
Urban
At urban sites, your group will have the opportunity to provide
much needed support to social service organizations busy serving
their bustling community. From loving kids at children programs
to serving a meal at a homeless shelter, your youth will leave
impacted by everyone they meet.
American Indian
There are many stereotypes and misconceptions about American
Indians. On a YouthWorks' mission trip, those stereotypes will
be broken down as you learn from a reservation's rich heritage
and culture. Your group will have the opportunity to lead a
YouthWorks Kids Club and take part in home improvement projects.
Your presence and service for a week will go a long way in
demonstrating the love of Jesus to a community on a reservation.
International
International sites include Mexico, Canada and Puerto Rico. In
Mexico, youth will have the opportunity to build homes, assist
with intense home repairs and run a YouthWorks Kids Club. In
both Puerto Rico and Canada, youth will have the opportunity
to partner with numerous social service organizations in need
of support. Be prepared to be forever changed as you serve
across international borders.
