From Cook County MN - March 18, 2020

If you have a child between the ages of 11 and 14, they are eligible to apply for the Incredible Exchange program.  The Incredible Exchange Program is an opportunity for these youth to volunteer between 25 and 50 hours during the months of June – August 2020 at pre-selected non-profits and or governmental agencies.  They will be paired up with vetted mentors to learn many of the beginning soft work skills while contributing to their community.  In exchange, they receive credits that can be used in Cook County for a cultural or recreational activity.  

Due to the fact we do not know whether the coronavirus will still be an issue, we will proceed assuming the program will be available for the summer.  If we continue to have issues with the coronavirus for the summer, we will unfortunately have to cancel the program.  Application forms were given out at Cook County ISD 166 and also at Great Expectations School.  If your child did not receive an application, please feel free to call me and I will make sure your child receives one either via email or snail mail.
