At YouthLink, our volunteers are a key part of our work. They inject enthusiasm and add different perspectives to our teams. And, they always make a difference.

That sums up Cindy Smith’s involvement with YouthLink perfectly. In the eight months since she started, Cindy has played a special role at the Drop-In Center caring for babies and toddlers while youth get their needs met and work with staff.
