Teen Volunteers Rock Wedgwood’s State of the Child Conference

An amazing group of Teen CHARGE and Kent ISD students volunteered to help with Wedgwood’s State of the Child Conference in February. They directed conference goers, handed out materials, and even got to participate in a fun play therapy session. Attendees were blown away by these teens, calling them “awesome” and “impressive”! One of the event organizers said their involvement was her favorite part of this year’s events. Interested students are encouraged to become part of next year’s teen planning committee by joining Teen CHARGE!
