Youth Construction Volunteers

Because Habitat complies with OSHA safety regulations, and in order to keep our volunteers safe, we require certain age restrictions on our worksites. Our regular construction worksites are open to volunteers 16 and over; however, youth 16-17 years of age cannot operate power tools or work at heights of more than 6 ft off the ground. All minors must be accompanied by an adult or chaperone, and must have a parent/guardian fill out a Waiver of Liability and a Minors Permission Form to be allowed to work on site.

Habitat does offer select hospitality opportunities to youth 15 and younger. For more info, contact [email protected].
