The work will be widely varied and will expose you to both clinical on non-clinical areas of Owensboro Health. The program runs from the last week in May through the end of July, and work schedules are flexible.

Volunteer Services begins accepting applications for the VolunTeen Summer Program on March 1 of each year. To apply, download the VolunTeen Program Application.
