Service Learning at QPL
Teens between 13 and 19 years old can participate in Service-Learning projects during the school year and summer months.
What is Service Learning? A service-learning opportunity focuses to teaching young people about specific topics while preparing them to "turnkey" the information and teach others in a variety of ways.
Example of How Service Learning Works
The World of Work for Teens educates participants about career readiness and the skills and characteristics needed to future success. Using this knowledge, participants organize and conduct a Peer-to-Peer mock-interview session to help strengthen the job preparation skills of other teens.
