We here at Teens of Tomorrow strive to keep our program within the law of each city and state. Below is our permits/registration for each city that has one for us.
Non-profit/charity programs- are not required to carry a permit on each person, but they are required to prove what charity/non-profit they are representing. On this page is proof of our non-profit status and our good standings with the city/state.
For-profit companies- such as roofing, windows, siding, pest control, Lawn services companies, and home security all require each person soliciting with the company, to carry a permit in that person’s name, city’s’ name, and it must match their government issued ID.
