Youth are experiencing unprecedented challenges, and life skill education is a research-backed solution for improving youth outcomes.
Help raise awareness of free life skill curriculums in Weld County schools and youth-serving organizations to promote mental, social, and behavioral health, resilience, safety, equality, and academic and life success in youth.
This flexible virtual or in-person outreach role is ideal for volunteers who enjoy connecting with people, advocating for youth education, and creating meaningful community impact.
Description:
As a Youth Life Skill Curriculum Ambassador, you will help schools and youth-serving organizations discover free, easy-to-use, online video life skill curriculums with interactive games to support positive youth outcomes in Weld County.
By connecting organizations to free PowerUp Co-Ed or PowerUp Girls for Life curriculums they can use in their own programs and services, you will help youth gain comprehensive life skills that support their well-being and success.
Because life skill education improves positive culture among students and between them and adults, your work will also support those who serve youth and strengthen families and communities.

- Advocate for life skill education as a research-backed solution to the unprecedented struggles faced by youth, and to the challenges of serving young people today.
- Share how to follow up with Youth Empowerment Group with questions or to get started with curriculums.
