The Kids Community Service Program (KCS) teaches middle school and high school students about the shelter, the community and the animals around us. Students earn community service hours by helping to maintain the shelter facilities and socializing adoptable animals. Space is limited to six students per each four-week session and applications are accepted throughout the school year. KCS does not meet during school breaks and middle school students must be in 6th grade to participate. KCS is the only volunteer opportunity at Rancho Coastal for children under the age of 18 and is only offered during the school year.
