Teen Services Facilitator

Teen services facilitators participate in our weekly Teen Group and, as opportunities arise, presentations on teen dating violence and healthy relationships in local middle school and high school classrooms. There may sometimes be a social media component as well.

Teen Group happens on Tuesday nights from 5-6:40pm. Facilitators are expected to arrive at least 15 minutes early for setup and may leave after cleaning up, which is typically no later than 6:45pm. Classroom workshops are scheduled throughout the school year on an irregular basis, which means that they may not always align with a facilitator's schedule and that's all right.

This position is a hybrid remote/in person one. Some tasks may be done online or remotely while others may involve being on-site at our main office, such as the Teen Group.
