TEEN PROGRAMS TEEN COALITION
We invite you to be involved in your community! Engage, educate and empower! These are the goals of the "Teen Coalition" facilitated by the El Cajon Parks and Recreation Department. The Teen Coalition is for teens in grades 6-12 who are city residents and/or attend city schools. Members will serve a one-year term, meeting monthly. Community partners play an active role in helping teens by providing meaningful workshops covering such topics as the juvenile justice system, education, local economy, and downtown development. The year will culminate with the teens giving back to the community by developing community service projects. Call (619) 441-1555 for more information.
