We're looking for volunteers to help out at our weekly Women's Empowerment Group! A little about the group: With the aim to promote gender equity and empower women, WRC facilitates a peer-to-peer support group for refugee women. The group provides a safe space where the women have the opportunity to speak openly about their experiences and receive information about health, hygiene, safety, American culture, and more. There are also weekly therapy sessions for women who have experienced high levels of trauma.
For this volunteer position, we're looking for mainly women and girls who are willing to lead some kind of activity for the women. This can be drawing, collaging, singing or dancing. It can also be a presentation on self-esteem, health and hygiene, or anything under the sun! The group is about getting our women out of the house and celebrating their identity in order to empower them. Anything that fits into that broad category is welcome!
