School Based Groups (Go Girls/Game On! are designed for youth ages 11-14 years-old to provide them with information to help make informed choices about healthy, active living.
You will co-lead a group of 8-12 students alongside another volunteer. Each session takes place on school property during the school day and focuses on promoting healthy living. Program manuals and training are provided. Mentors will be matched at a local elementary school.
Through regular group sessions, a relationship is developed between the Mentors and the youth, built on trust and common interests, and is supported by our experienced Program Coordinators. The result is a life-changing experience for both the volunteer Mentors and children.
Volunteer Requirements:
- Able to commit between Sept-June for a minimum of 1, 7-week session
