Are you passionate about empowering young girls with the knowledge and confidence to navigate puberty and body changes? The Confidence Campaign is seeking enthusiastic and compassionate volunteers to become facilitators for our IYKYK (If You Know About Hygiene, You Will Always Know) Healthy Hygiene Habits and Body Positivity Program.
This program aims to reach over 7,000 girls in grades 3-12 across Lafayette Parish, providing essential education on hygiene, body positivity, and self-care. As a facilitator, you will play a crucial role in creating a supportive environment where girls feel comfortable learning and asking questions about puberty and body changes.
Your Role Will Include:
- Learning to deliver our hygiene and body positivity curriculum with confidence and sensitivity.
- Participating in training sessions on weeknights and weekends as needed until you feel fully prepared.
- Shadowing experienced facilitators to gain hands-on experience and build your comfort level.
- Traveling to schools and community organizations to lead workshops (some travel outside of Lafayette Parish may be required).
Flexible Scheduling:
We understand that everyone’s schedule is different. Workshops will be delivered during the day, evenings, and on weekends throughout the week, so we can work with your availability to make volunteering fit your life.
What We’re Looking For:
- Dedication: Volunteers who are committed to learning the curriculum and engaging with our mission.
- Comfort: Individuals who feel comfortable discussing topics like hygiene, puberty, and body changes in an age-appropriate way.
- Flexibility: Availability for evening or weekend training and the ability to travel as needed.
Why Volunteer With Us?
As a facilitator, you’ll directly impact the lives of young girls, helping them feel confident and prepared as they grow. This is an ongoing opportunity to make a difference while gaining valuable skills in public speaking, education, and mentorship.
