Now recruiting for volunteer mentors!
This upcoming school year, spend your hour making a difference as a Lunch Hero! Roseburg's Adapt Peer Power is continuing its successful Lunch Heroes Mentoring Program at many elementary schools in Douglas County Oregon. Each Lunch Hero volunteer will be matched with an at-risk child to meet with during lunch to eat, talk, and interact in a fun and positive way!
With small, manageable training events and flexible scheduling, Lunch Heroes is the perfect volunteer opportunity for students, professionals, and retirees alike!
An interview and background check are required.
Contact Cati Adkins via email or call at 541-672-2691 to set up an interview at our office in downtown Roseburg and be a part of our upcoming training.

Description
Peer Power is the Prevention Department at Adapt. The Prevention Department was started in 1982 and took on the Peer Power name in 2009.
From the beginning, substance abuse prevention has been a primary part of what we do at Peer Power. We have added problem gambling prevention, suicide prevention, child abuse prevention, and bullying prevention. In addition we work with community partners to assist in their efforts in tobacco prevention and violence prevention.
Peer Power also works in several coalitions on issues such as child abuse prevention, substance abuse prevention, suicide prevention, and creating a healthy active community.
