WORKFORCE/ WORKFARE

Colorado Workforce Center of Weld County, which currently places “volunteers” at TGNN to help them gain employment experience as part of their Food Stamp entitlement benefits, will provide the Kaleidoscope Youth Program with two “volunteers” who will help with day-to-day activities and management.

VOLUNTEERS

We love our volunteers.  Last year 20 volunteers provided more than 90 hours to more than 113 kids, totaling nearly 950 hours of activities.

BOOKMOBILE

We have been included in the Weld Library District’s Bookmobile schedule for this summer, as well as a Library staff member will be participating in our theme-based activities.
