Greene County students in the Teen Outreach Program ® had a busy December with service projects at the long term care unit of Greene County Medical Center and at the Greene County Early Learning Center.
The students made two separate visits to long term care. They played bingo with residents on the first visit and returned a week later to help decorate holiday cookies.

The Teen Outreach Program is an evidence-based program that helps foster compassion and confidence in youngsters to seize opportunities for personal growth and civic commitment. Through the program, youngsters gain insights and skills they will need to navigate life transitions and move toward independence with supportive community relationships. The program matches curriculum with local hands-on service projects to create a dynamic and engaging learning environment.
