If you love working with children and want to help prepare your community for disasters then you may want to consider a Youth Preparedness Presenter position with the Red Cross! The Youth Preparedness Program helps youth become better prepared to help their friends, families, and loved ones by teaching them life-saving skills and disaster preparedness tips. By helping students develop these skills early on it helps to ensure that our community is resilient and prepared in times of need.
Youth Presenters will help the Youth Program in its mission by going into schools and teaching these skills to students. Presentations run thirty minutes to one hour in length and typically presenters will present to multiple classes in a day. Presenters will have the opportunity to interact with a variety of students at many different schools.
