Application Form
Applications for the 2026-2027 school year are now OPEN!
We are a group of youth (ages 12 - 18) in Clark County, WA who want to be a part of the solution for preventing addiction and improving mental health in our generation and in our community. We think every youth voice is important, and we want to be an inclusive, nonjudgmental, and safe space for people our age to talk about experiences, share information/resources, and figure out together what we want our future to look like and how we can make it happen.
Who should apply: If you are 12 to 18, live in Clark County (WA), and want to help build a healthier community, you should definitely apply! No volunteer or leadership experience required. We value having people with diverse backgrounds and experiences join our group, because we are able to learn from each other's experiences and become stronger peer educators. TFT needs member representation from youth who have had past use/experimentation but are no longer using, youth who are in recovery, and youth who have never used substances. All of these voices are needed in prevention work!
All TFT members must commit to serving at least a one-year term (September to June), although many of us love it so much that we commit to serving more. We meet 2-3 Mondays a month from 6:30-8:30 pm, and it's really important to us that you're able to attend these meetings. In all, it's pretty normal we each volunteer 4-8 hours each month. If accepted, you will have to attend our annual TFT Fall Training, which is mandatory and will be Saturday, September 12 from 9 am to 5 pm and Sunday, September 13 from 9 am to 5 pm. Lastly, because of the work we do, it is important you are committed to not using alcohol, nicotine, or other drugs as a TFT leader.
Contact us with any questions about how to apply.
