  • Individual teens and adults
  • Younger teens with a parent or mentor
  • Families with teens
  • High School clubs
  • Anyone who has completed a suggested Volunteer level prerequisite

Requirement 1 for the Advocate Level Patch Program®

Plan It.
Advocates know they want to help. It’s important to choose a specific project that they can achieve with a start and end date. Many projects will require help from the community, and raising funds is often required to complete a project.

Working with a Mentor, Youth Squad® Advocates Research their Project Idea.
Advocates research their interest area to choose a project.

We give you links, videos and downloads to help research, outreach and fund raise as well as suggested ideas for each interest area.

Requirement 2 for the Advocate Level Patch Program®

Do It.
You can choose to participate in an existing program or do your own project. Get additional volunteers to help or work on your own.

Youth Squad® Volunteers Raise Funds with a Car Wash.
Carry out your plan including fundraising.

Advocates can always jump in to do the Volunteer level work and earn both patches at the same time.

Requirement 3 for the Advocate Level Patch Program®

Review It.
At the Advocate level, participants reach back out into the community to thank them. They can ask for feedback, send out photos, post on social media, or even host an event at the project site.

Advocates will make meaningful contributions in their community

Certificates can be downloaded for participants, sponsors and business owners.

After reviewing their project, Advocates can choose to make a continued commitment or move on to another interest area. Advocates also have the option of progressing to the Delegate level.

There are Advocate requirements for each Youth Squad® section. Patches can be purchased on our partner site MakingFriends®.com.
