Hey CACLGBT,

Sarah and I have a volunteer opportunity for queer/ally students to get involved in promoting the health of their communities through safer sex education and testing. Can you please send this to any students or networks who you think would be interested in this project?

I am available to answer any questions you may have about the project.

Thank you!

Sam

INTERESTED IN BECOMING AN OUTREACH WORKER?

Berkeley Builds Capacity is currently recruiting volunteers to promote HIV testing and safer sex!  http://bit.ly/bbcvolunteer

Who is an outreach worker?

Outreach workers listen, educate, and help people get the information they need to take care of their health. Our outreach workers will enter a wide variety of settings to link community members to HIV testing, services, and safer sex information.

What will you get out of this?
- Empower yourself and your community
- Increase awareness of safer sex in your community
- Increase your own knowledge and confidence
- Relevant job skills: presentation, community building, facilitation
- Opportunities for development, including training as an HIV test counselor.

 

What is the time commitment?
-A meet and greet where you can learn about the project before committing: Tuesday, September 6th 7-8pm 

- Two mandatory days of training: 

-Day 1 - Saturday September 17th 10-4pm 

-Day 2 - Saturday September 24th 10-4pm 

- Two outreach shifts a month (4-6 hours each) 

- Attendance at monthly outreach team meetings (First Tuesday of every month, 6-8pm).
