• JHCS Sage Living and St. John’s Hospital Volunteer Group

  The JHCS Sage Living and St. John’s Hospital Volunteer Group connects JHCS students with the residents of Sage Senior Living and with the patients of St. John’s. Volunteering at these facilities can be greatly rewarding both for the patients and residents, who love social interactions, and for the volunteers themselves, who find great fulfillment and pleasure in assisting these people. As a part of this group at JHCS, students can learn about the amazing stories of the residents at these facilities, play games or make music with them, lead art or yoga classes, and much more, fostering deep connections both with each other and with the patients themselves. The group also makes volunteering a relationship-building and social experience: students can view a shared calendar and coordinate times to volunteer together. This service group fosters relationships among students and between students and Sage Living residents and the patients of St. John’s Hospital. If you are interested in joining, please email Vonn or Xander. SignUp Genius coming soon!

• Library Teen Advisory Board

  The Library Teen Advisory Board is a great opportunity for students ages 13-18 to serve the Teton County Library and have their voices heard: join by attending a meeting, held every third Thursday of the month from 5:30-6:30pm. As a board member, you will help design library spaces teens need, plan programming for people your age, make book recommendations to improve the Young Adult collection, and be an advocate for youth services and needs at the Library and in the community. The next meetings are Dec 19, Jan 16, and Feb 20.
