ORGANIZATION: GIRLS ON THE RUN SONOMA COUNTY

  • 3 people are interested
All hands in

YOU can bring joy, health, caring and confidence to young girls. Girls on the Run Sonoma County is looking for positive women volunteers to co-coach a program of life-skill discussions and activities in the after-school hours at various schools in Petaluma. We are ramping up for our fall season, and need volunteers at three more sites for the program to go at those schools! We'll train you to lead groups in games, discussions and running or jogging. No need to be an avid runner. The commitment is brief- just 10 weeks once or twice a week for 90 minutes! Join us and encourage other joyful women to do the same. Visit gotrsonomacounty.org or email Stacie Sather, Program Director at stacie.sather@gotrsonomacounty.org.

GOTRSC provides all coach training and materials, as well as first aid/CPR certification and background checks. Coach Training will be in August, with the season starting the week of 18 September.

Mission Statement

We inspire girls to be joyful, healthy and confident using a fun, experience-based curriculum which creatively integrates running.

Description

Over a period of 10 weeks, girls in the 3rd through 5th grade participate in an after-school program like no other. Designed to allow every girl to recognize her inner strength, the Girls on the Run curriculum inspires girls to define their lives on their own terms. Throughout the season, the girls make new friends, build their confidence and celebrate all that makes them unique.

The Girls on the Run lessons encourage positive emotional, social, mental and physical development. Participants explore and discuss their own beliefs around experiences and challenges girls face at this age. They also develop important strategies and skills to help them navigate life experiences. We start with helping the girls get a better understanding of who they are and what’s important to them. Then, we look at the importance of team work and healthy relationships. And, finally, the girls explore how they can positively connect with and shape the world.
