These are some of the qualities we look for when selecting teen volunteers:

How Do I Apply?
Applications are now closed and will open for the summer 2021 season in the spring. If you are interested and have not volunteered with us before please register here and you will receive a notification when we are able to take volunteers!
If you applied to be a teen volunteer in 2020, both new and returning, you will receive an email in the spring with details on how to get started. If you have new contact information please email that to us at Volunteers@jbzoo.org.
What happens after I apply?
After reviewing completed applications we will contact selected applicants for an interview. Due to the high number of applications we receive, we cannot guarantee an interview for all applicants. All completed applications will receive an email notification if they did or did not get into the program.
