For Students

Thank you for learning about homelessness as part of your education!

If you're doing a project on homelessness

We have a lot of resources for you on our website.

• Who are the homeless
  
• Why are they homeless
  
• Other resources on the web 
• Statistics of the homeless at the Atlantic City Rescue Mission
• Information about how to start a collection drive
• The Mission's needs list
  

If you need to volunteer or complete community service

Read the requirements carefully for individual volunteers.  If you are under age 14, you cannot volunteer on-site at the Mission.  If you are age 14-17, you may volunteer with your parent or an adult chaperone. Please fill out the online volunteer application and indicate that you are a student doing community service. Please plan ahead - for the safety of our guests, you cannot volunteer unless you have been pre-approved.

If you're interested in service learning

College students may complete service learning or internships at the Mission.  We often accept Social Work students, and sometimes Communications students, for service learning.  Please read the process for individual volunteers, and then fill out the online volunteer application.
