We are so grateful for the time, talent and treasure of our volunteers. There are so many ways that you can become involved with Teen Health Connection. Please sign up to volunteer with us and together, we can make a difference!
Become a Girls Educated and Motivated for Success (GEMS) Mentor
Currently there are three GEMS groups that meet one evening a week for an entire year. There is no fee for the young women to participate in the GEMS program thanks to financial support from the United Way, Women's Impact Fund, Teen Impact Fund and donations from our community.
For more information on how to become involved with our GEMS Mentoring Program as a participant or a mentor, please visit our GEMS page or contact our health educator, Delilah McDonald, at 704-381-8370 or by email:
