I’m in highschool and am looking for different organizations to be able to find leadership roles and community service. This could be anything near or in the "Bay Area" (San Fransisco, California). Any suggestions on where I can find them?
Begin by going to your highschool guidance counsolor, they usually have job listings and will have tons of ideas for local oportunities. Next, look around your area in fields you may be interested in. Often hospitals or nursing homes take volunteers to visit the elderly or help host events. The local YMCA or children’s center usually takes volunteers to help with programs. A church will almost always have openings if you’d like to run a bible study or another program. They also often know of other openings in the community.
Good luck, I hope this helped!

Ask your guidence counselor and school social worker at school. You could also look them up online and in newspapers.
