Can you lend a hand?
The Coast Capital Savings Peer Resource and Leadership Centre (PRLC) wants volunteers for the 2016/17 school year.
Peer leaders are committed to providing peer support, information, and referrals to the UFV community of students. Peer leaders don’t follow a certain profile — volunteers can come from all walks of life and bring different life experiences to the table. Successful peer leaders will have the following characteristics:
- Empathetic
- Compassionate
- Able to quickly build relationships with new people
- Mature
- Committed and reliable
- Respectful of privacy and confidentiality
- Appreciative of diverse lifestyles and points of view
- Flexible and open to change
- Able to work individually as well as in a team setting
- Able to remain calm during emergency situations.
Peer leaders are asked to commit to 4-5 hours a week for a minimum of two semesters (September to April).
