Rolling Registration! Teen to Teen Peer Education Program Interested students from the Middle and High School are invited to join our T2T peer education program. The premise of a peer educator program is that teens are more likely to listen to peers about issues. If we educate students about specific topics that are a potential issue for teens, they will have the accurate information to pass on to peers if and when the topic arises organically in a natural setting. The YSB T2T program will earn participants community service credit, and will also look pretty good on college applications! Each peer educator will be expected to attend four of eight training sessions to be held throughout the school year. A variety of topics will be covered from the risks associated with under age use of marijuana, to signs of depression, from reducing unwanted teen pregnancies and STD's to issues facing LGBTQIA youth. Participants and their families will be given a schedule of topics, and are able to pick and choose the topics they are comfortable with learning about. Parents are always welcome to attend the training's as well. Parenting Workshop Parent with less anger, more love! Call for information on the next workshop! |
