Edmonton, Canada Youth Unlimited Edmonton Full time

**Youth Unlimited** **desires to see every young person explore their potential, understand their worth and discover hope.**

**Volunteer Opportunity**

**Relationship Builder**:
In your role as a Relationship Builder, you will be challenged to engage with youth on a deeply personal level.

You will be amazed as youth share their stories with you and want you to walk alongside them on their journey as a valued and trusted adult. This may mean chatting with individuals or groups of youth, but always with the intention of hearing their story and being available to support.

**Responsibilities**:

- Engage with students in various activities as well as in intentional conversations. Provide a safe, supportive adult for students to talk to, about daily life and current problems.
- Provide a warm, compassionate, non-judgmental, accepting adult presence.
- Be intentional to get to know students and what they are going through.
- Be able to follow up with past conversations in order to help students feel heard and seen.
- Communicate with YU staff about some of the supports needed for students. Arrive half an hour before the program starts to help set up the space.
- Clean up and debrief with the rest of the leadership team after drop-in.

**Time Commitment**:

- Drop-ins run from 3:30-6pm, 2x per week after school at each drop-in across the city. We would love you to be at as many as you are comfortable with. Our preference would be at least one day a week, but this is negotiable.
- 1 hour, 3x per year for support/check-ins with the team lead.
- 2 hours, 2x per year for training/appreciation.

As a relationally-focused program, **you and your presence matter**. Youth are looking for role models and stable, consistent adults to support them. So, if you want to take on a volunteer role with us, commitment is important. Relationships are built on stability.

**Job Type**: Part-time
