Monthly Volunteer Days

About

Powerful Voices hosts monthly Volunteer Days every first Monday of the month at our office in Capitol Hill where folks can join to support various program needs like making program materials (self care packages, student projects, event decorations), outreaching, providing feedback, and build their connection to the PV community. Light food and drinks will be provided at every event. Sign-up required as spots are limited.

About the Organization

Powerful Voices is unique in the Seattle area because of our focus on issues affecting adolescent girls, and because we address these issues-through girl-led, strengths-based programs. We serve: Girls ages 12-19. Powerful Voices is focused on girls most impacted by oppression and violence. In 2013, 97% of the 350 girls we served were young women of color and 71% were living with a low or very low income. Powerful Voices also engages with 200+ allies (adults and young men) each year who are interested in working in solidarity with girls to create a more just world. Through our programs: 1. Powerful Choices: School and community based groups and 1:1 support. 2. Youth Employment Program: Groups provide pre-employment skills and produce youth-led social justice projects like a Zine and presentations at our annual Girlvolution Conference. 3. Case Management: Staff work 1:1 with girls to provide prevention and intervention strategies for employment, education support, mentoring, recreational programming, and counseling. 4. Community Engagement: Activities such as our annual Girlvolution Conference, Girl Justice training, and groups at the juvenile detention center support girls and the community to work together on girl?s issues to promote equity and justice.
