Prevention Educators join the Youth Education and Support Services (YESS) program to lead two-day dynamic presentations on violence prevention to elementary, middle and/or high school students in Contra Costa County. This hands-on classroom experience will give you the chance to work with adolescents to help them reduce relationship violence and develop healthy relationships. You will learn new skills, gain valuable information and have the satisfaction of working as an ally to our youth to end violence in our schools.
Requirements:

Mission Statement
STAND! For Families Free of Violence is a catalyst for breaking the multi-generational cycle of violence, promoting safe and strong relationships, and rebuilding lives.
Description
STAND! For Families Free of Violence is committed to promoting safe and strong families. Our approach to eliminating family violence is well-rounded and community-wide. In addition to providing a complete spectrum of prevention, intervention, and treatment programs, we also enlist the efforts of local residents, partners, and institutions, all of whom are striving with us to stop domestic violence and child abuse.
STAND! is a founding member of the "Zero Tolerance for Domestic Violence Initiative", a cross-sector organization working for 10 years to help solve domestic violence, sexual assault and children exposed to violence. But we cannot achieve our mission without the help of every individual, every school, every faith community, every neighborhood, and every business.
Whether our volunteers are answering incoming calls to our crisis line, being STAND's representative at speaking events, or fundraising, they are a vital part of STAND!.
To learn more about our agency, current volunteer opportunities, and the application process, please visit our website at http://www.standffov.org/
Most of our volunteer positions require volunteers to complete a 50+ hour Mandated Agency Training. We offer this training 3 times a year. Check our website or contact volunteer@standffov.org for more information.
