Volunteers 18 years or older can participate on an IVHQ program alone. However, children under18 must be participating in a group with with a parent, guardian or family member who is 18 years or over.
When I went to South Africa I was 28 years old and there were people in the same program that were 18 years old and others Who were 55 to 65 years old. I had the same question when I was first signed up with IVHQ; my thinking was that it was more targeted towards those doing a gap year between high school and college but I found that its participants are as diverse in age as they are in identify.
