Teen Volunteer Opportunities

The City of Cupertino’s Parks and Recreation Department offers rewarding teen volunteer opportunities that build leadership skills, teamwork, and a strong sense of community.

Youth Activity Board (YAB) – A year-round leadership opportunity where members collaborate with City staff to plan and host youth and teen community events.

Recreation Event Volunteers (REV) – A year-round program where volunteers support City events, creating positive experiences for the community. In return, they receive recognition for their dedication and contributions.

Leaders in Training (LIT) – A summer-long program where teens gain hands-on experience as future camp counselors. Under the guidance of Recreation Leaders, LITs work with children, run games, and receive valuable feedback through weekly evaluations—an excellent opportunity for first-time job or volunteer experience.
