Kids’ Turn is a workshop series for families going through parental separation and divorce offered in San Francisco and Oakland. As a Kids’ Turn Volunteer, you will help give children the critical support needed to navigate a challenging and emotional process.

Volunteer Responsibilities:

  • Arrive at each workshop session early to assist facilitators with set up and review the day’s lesson
  • Keep youth participants engaged by distributing learning materials, reinforcing instructions, modeling active participation, and answering questions
  • Attend a debrief meeting with all staff and volunteers after each workshop session to discuss participants’ progress and give and receive feedback

Volunteers commit to the full life-cycle of a single workshop series - once a week for 2 - 3 hours for 6 weeks; typically, 6 Saturday mornings in a row. All volunteers must be at least 16 years of age to participate and pass a criminal background check. Workshops dates are available in San Francisco and Oakland. 1 - 4 times per year. There are no workshops scheduled for June and July.
