Fall 2024 Volunteer Opportunity with the State’s Attorney’s Office

Posted on by

The Truancy Prevention Program (TPP) is currently recruiting volunteers for the Fall Semester!

As a part of the crime prevention initiatives established by the State’s Attorney’s Office, TPP works to improve attendance in Montgomery County by discovering the root causes of truancy and assisting students and their families with issues that impact attendance.  The program currently serves in 26 MCPS schools and is looking to expand to every middle school in Montgomery County. Volunteers are needed to make it happen!

Serving as a volunteer Mentor or Facilitator is a rewarding way to utilize your expertise in education. The program entails a ten week commitment of 2-3 hours a week. Volunteers meet with students who are chronically absent as a Mentor or a Facilitator helping students set goals to improve their attendance. Students who complete the program successfully are invited to a graduation ceremony at the end of the semester. You can see the difference it makes to students and their proud families as they gather to celebrate their success.

For more information please contact Rebecca Marcolini at 240-777-7370 or Rebecca.Marcolini@MontgomeryCountyMD.gov.
