Be The Change Earth Alliance

Climate Action, Resilience, and Emotions (CARE) is a two-part, in-class workshop designed for youth aged 10-18 in the Kelowna and Kamloops regions to explore their emotions related to climate change, learn resilience-building strategies, connect with local community environmental initiatives, and become empowered to take positive local action. We are hiring two teams of volunteer workshop facilitators: one in Kamloops, and one in Kelowna. Applicants must be located in either Kelowna or Kamloops, and able to travel to local schools to deliver in-person workshops. Volunteer facilitators will receive a $50 honorarium for completing facilitator training, and an additional $50 for each 2-part workshop facilitated. We encourage anyone ages 18-30 who is interested in climate justice and youth empowerment to apply to join our volunteer facilitation team! This is a volunteer commitment that runs from December 2025 to May 2026, with the possibility of continuing through the summer and into the fall. We anticipate an average commitment of 8-10 total hours, including preparation for workshops, workshop delivery, and travel time. All successful applicants will be trained in social-emotional resilience techniques, classroom management, delivering CARE content, and will be supported by ongoing check-in meetings with CARE staff as needed.
