According to Terre Perrin, program coordinator, “The Red Cross reached about 30,000 young people in other part of B.C. last year with this program and we know there is a need for it here as well. We're looking for some very special people, who are willing to put in a lot of training and time and are deeply committed to education and prevention around the issue of abuse.” Due to the nature of the program and the time c required, volunteer applicants will be carefully screened through a s election process personal interviews and a police screening. Perrin noted that although not everyone is suited for this work (or has the time av: le), in other parts of BC there are more applicants than positions avail able. “We will provide more than 50 hours of pro- fessional training, classroom coaching and a good upport to our volunteers,” The Red Cro Halso cover travel and will work hard, Appreciated.” t of Education degree in and a background in tarted working for the ind is planning to begin weeke January | be offered in the eariy rintendents in the area ut the program in the past Support for it. “We are of the puzzle in solving our Communities, but edu- lirecting young people to fitical areas to address,” program of ongoing he said. * other expenses but we'll make sure th 7 Perrin, who has a Ma our voiunteer Counseling Psychol« teaching and counselir Red Cross in September (raining volunteers ¢ School presentations pring received information at All schoel supe year and have expres going to be only one pi the problem of abuse ir cation, prevention and help when needed ar concluded Perrin Application forms and information packages for these volunteer positions are available at the regional Red Cross office in Castlegar.
