Haljala Youth Centre has organized different events: Table Game Turnaments, movienights, different theme-parties, visiting other youth centres in the area and so on.

We include the volunteer into our daily activities which enable him/her to organise different workshops with the youth workers of the centre, also to become a participant in trainings in which our own youth workers participate. As the volunteer will work closely with local children she/he is in a very good position in finding out what the children long for and thus initiate her/his own project ideas. She/he is also welcome to cooperate with other institutions in Haljala parish. Through his/her service volunteer will become more familiar with the social and cultural background of Haljala community. The volunteer will act as an ambassador in the community connecting the institutions and developing activities.
