• *URGENT* KING COUNTY BIDEWW AFTER-SCHOOL PROGRAM DRIVER

  with Washington West African Center formally GAMBIAN TALENTS PROMOTION
  12320 80th Avenue SouthSeattle, WA 98178
  It's Flexible! We'll work with your schedule

  JOB DESCRIPTION FOR KING COUNTY BIDEWW AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM DRIVER BIDEWW AFTER-SCHOOL PROGRAM SUMMARY After several parents engaged us to create a program that will support West African kids with their academic, life and social skills needs, in February of 2022, WAWAC finally created what we call our "BIDEWW" (STAR) After School Program. WAWAC's BIDEWW/star after-school program and homework club seeks to create a culturally appropriate fun and new learning environment that fosters social skills, and provides learning opportunities for our kids through exciting semi-structured activities such as science experiments, cooking classes, arts projects, singing, dancing, music, cinematography, storytelling and more at a culturally appropriate setting for free of charge. Since the kids spend a lot of time at school where they learn in a structured and formal environment, the BIDEWW After School program is done in a loose environment where they still learn fun stuff that they create themselves. Additional recreational activities also take place to encourage them to stay active, healthy, and connected with each other. This is also a platform for West African kids to interact, learn from each other and build their own community. It is available to school-aged children 5 to 17 years old in Snohomish and King Counties twice a week.Through this platform,the kids of our community explore their artistic instincts through collaborative art projects.It holds significant value for our kids because it inspires them to be creatively driven at an early age. An opportunity that they don't ordinarily receive from their parents because a lot of West African parents deem art as a "waste of time" -This grossly deprives kids the possibility to explore their creativity. We pride ourselves in opening our program to a wide range of African kids tailored to their unique needs, identity and values. In Lynnwood, WAWAC offers this program twice a week (Wednesday's and Friday's (4:30pm to 7:00 pm) and needs support helping to maintain and improve this essential service. This location is a high need as both the kids and the parents eagerly look forward to this program. After successfully implementing the pilot Bideww After School program in Snohomish County, in September of 2022, WAWAC partnered with School’s Out Washington to start a similar program in King County. This program is also offered to the West African youths in King County twice a week ( Tuesdays and Thursdays 2:35pm to 5pm) at Dimmitt Middle School (12320 80th Ave S, Seattle, WA 98178) Take a look at what a week can look like in the afterschool program: here or here .

  It's Flexible! We'll work with your schedule

  PEPS is a non-profit organization that connects parents to strengthen families and build community through parent peer-support groups. PEPS groups meet weekly and are facilitated by a PEPS-trained Leader. Each meeting allows parents the opportunity to share the week's concerns, successes, issues, and joys as well as time for a discussion on topics related to parenting and children (sleeping, feeding, adjusting to parenthood, etc.) The PEPS program model is based on the 5 Protective Factors from Strengthening Families, which help build resilient families, positive connections and support for parents, and reduce negative outcomes, such as abuse and neglect. Groups meet for 2 hrs each week in the daytime [10-:30 - 12:30] or in the Evening [6:30 - 8:30], the same day each week for 12 weeks. Leaders commit to working with their group for 12 consecutive weeks, fewer if you choose to co-lead with a friend, spouse, partner, or colleague. PEPS provides specialized training and group leaders have access to experienced PEPS staff mentorship and a wealth of resources online. 98% of PEPS groups are facilitated by volunteers who are deeply rooted in our community and passionate about supporting new parents through the first critical months of life with a new baby. Over 4000 families rely on PEPS volunteers each year. PEPS facilitators are compassionate, empathetic, resourceful, and real. They don't have all the answers, but they are passionate about helping parents, generating ideas, finding information, and building neighborhood communities together. Some leaders give back as a way of honoring their own PEPS experience. Many are new to PEPS. All tell us they find great joy and satisfaction in helping new parents connect and share through their PEPS groups. For new leaders, we are offering online training sessions to guide you and educate you about how to lead parent support groups. We are there to support you as needed throughout the experience.

• Make a Difference as an MCI/ Early Stage Memory Loss Support Group Facilitator in Snohomish Co

  with Alzheimer's Association Washington State Chapter
  Lynnwood, WA 98036
  It's Flexible! We'll work with your schedule

  Make a difference in the lives of people living with memory loss! MCI/Early Stage Memory Loss Support Group Facilitator Are you retired from healthcare and still want to give? Are you a social worker or healthcare professional looking to make a difference in the lives of people living with memory loss? Our MCI/ Early Stage Memory Loss (ESML) Support Groups provide an invaluable network that people with memory loss can turn to for advice and encouragement. You can help them feel socially connected and give them a sense of belonging and purpose. Support Group Volunteer Facilitators create a space for that important interaction by encouraging conversation and maintaining a positive and caring environment. "It was an opportunity to interact with people at the same stage I was in and it helped me have a greater understanding that I’m not alone. And I don’t feel alone anymore." ESML Program Participant Our volunteers continuously learn and grow alongside the participants while serving a population in need of great support. "When I began leading the ESML program, I realized that I did carry a stigma based on a fear of not knowing how to interact with people with memory loss and what to expect from them," said Melinda an ESML Walk Volunteer. "The greatest thing I’ve learned is that people with memory loss are just people. And even though they have memory loss-they’re here. They may not be able to respond to you the way people without memory loss respond, but when they give you a hug, grab your hand, look you in the eye-they’re here." We provide training and opportunities for growth. Our Chapter trained volunteers receive excellent training, ongoing support, resources, and continuing education opportunities. Individuals who are often best qualified as an early stage memory loss support group facilitator include working or retired social workers, nurses and other healthcare professionals, educators, clergy, and counselors. Commitment of at least one year is required. Be a part of our team! Contact Jerri Wood at jwood@alz.org

• Volunteers Needed to Clean Up Seattle | Get Community Service Hours!

  with Pacific Beach Coalition
  Multiple LocationsSeattle, WA 98115
  It's Flexible! We'll work with your schedule

  Our goal is to get as many Earth Heroes as possible to cleanup a location of their liking and inspiring others, while staying safe and respecting County and State orders. What are the "Street to Beach" cleanups? Simply put, it is a cleanup by yourself or with family and/or housemates following your county's orders for COVID-19. It can be around your neighborhood, at the beach, in a needy area, or anywhere actually. You could even "adopt" a specific location in need and care for it on a regular basis. https://www.pacificbeachcoalition.org/street-beach-cleanups/ Please Note: If you do a cleanup, you are doing it on your own accord and personally accepting any and all risks. Why should we do this? Neighborhood and street cleanups are fun and rewarding outdoor activities for you, your family and friends. Picking up litter from the streets keeps it from flowing into the ocean via our storm drains. We are now finding lots of litter, plastic bags, wrappers, disposable gloves, masks and food containers on our beaches and throughout the neighborhoods. Every single piece collected counts to saving our wildlife and habitats! How can we help? It is very easy! Make sure you have all your supplies ready, and go out! Don’t forget to let us know how much trash you collected so that we can add it to our total. Follow these 4 steps to have a safe and fun cleanup: 1. Go on our website to sign the online waiver 2. Grab your supplies (bucket, gloves, pick up sticks) 3. Download the Clean Swell app to record the trash you got (or more ways to log the trash on our website) 4. Go outside near your home Instructions to get community volunteer hours verified here: https://www.pacificbeachcoalition.org/student-volunteer-hours/ Thank you for caring! Pacific Beach Coalition
