Youth Program Facilitator (Volunteer)
More parents than ever have cancer. That means more kids are facing the challenge of a parent?s diagnosis. Pickles Group provides free peer-to-peer support and resources for kids and teens whose parents have cancer.
Volunteer Role - Fully Remote (US Only), or In-Person in the North Chicago Suburbs - Unpaid...
We offer clinician-developed, career-relevant volunteer opportunities for students or professionals pursuing Social Work, Child Life, Nursing, Psychology and the like. At Pickles, you will work directly with youth providing social-emotional support around their parents' cancer journey. We would be a great fit for any grad student or professional who wants to work with school-aged kids, in proximity to cancer care, and/or want experience with bereavement support (bereavement isn't the main part of our work so those who are adverse to it won't have to be involved; we have a subset of programming that focuses specifically on grief).
What You?ll Do As a Youth Program Facilitator
? Co-lead and actively participate in virtual or in-person activities, games, and structured fun for school-aged kids and teens impacted by parental cancer, separated into groups based on age, development, and circumstances.
? Review curriculum and all materials designed and provided by Kelsey Mora, CCLS, LCPC, our Chief Clinical Officer, to feel prepared to facilitate with ease.
? Support and customize the experience to fit the curriculum and your group.
? Communicate with families about attendance and absences each session.
Additional Opportunities for extra experience may include:
? Access to professional development from Chief Clinical Officer
? Supporting and facilitating for Pickles Group at signature events
? Attending industry-related conferences as a Pickles representative
? Relationship-development with prestigious hospital systems
? Career-specific Family Outreach, like new family referral and intake calls
Qualifications for Role:
? Graduate-level students or professionals focused on Child Life, Nursing, Oncology, Social Work, or other related fields. Similarly-qualified people are welcome to apply.
? At least one year of direct experience working with children and families
? 21 years of age or older
? Must pass a background check
? At this time, all facilitators must be located in the United States.
