In 1999, the Helpline Center developed SALSA, the Serve & Learn Student Association, as a way to connect youth with opportunities to serve their communities. It allows teens to create and carry out meaningful service projects that meet community needs and inspire other youth to get involved in volunteerism. Youth join SALSA to meet new friends, explore careers, gain leadership experience, earn hours for scholarship applications, and make a difference in their community.
