Volunteers

Volunteers are an important part of our Detention Facility.  They offer a wide array of services and assistance to our detained youth.  Our volunteers come from many community organizations such as:

• Foster Grandparent Program
• Arts & Crafts Program
• Narcotics Anonymous
• Alcoholics Anonymous
• Various local churches  - providing non-denominational services. 

We are always open to more programming for our detained youth.  If you have a specific program you would like to conduct as a volunteer, please contact our Detention Manager at Ceckles@washoecounty.us . 

All volunteers are subject to the same background check requirements as employees of Washoe County Juvenile Services.
