Legally it depends on what state you are in (similarly to bike helmets or seat belts), most often if you are under 18 it is required by law. It is also dependent on the organization that insures the property, different insurance companies have different helmet requirements. Also if you are at an equestrian competition, certain organizations (4h, pony club, USEF, USDF, etc, etc) have different regulations on helmet wearing. Even the class you are competing in can dictate whether or not you are required to wear a helmet, jumping classes are more likely to require one, whereas many dressage tests will not. It is always recommended to wear a helmet at any age due to the likelyhood of a head injury.

A good place to look is your local therapeutic riding center or horse rescue shelter. Some of rescues and riding centers will have age restrictions on volunteers, but many would allow a twelve year old so it's certainly worth checking. Also try calling riding academies around you. They may let you help out in the barn (feeding, cleaning stalls and stuff like that) in exchange for riding lessons.
