Supervisor(s) for LGBTQ+ youth group Sneek - COC Friesland

Description

COC Friesland is looking for group facilitators for a new meeting place for LGBTQ+ youth in Sneek!

Supervisors of this group in Sneek, will be the first point of contact for all LGBTQ+ people aged 12 to 26 in and around Sneek. This group will be a combination of Jong&Out and Expreszo. In this, Jong&Out is a meeting place where LGBTQ+ young people up to 18 years old have a safe place to meet. Previously, a Jong&Out Sneek meeting was organised every second Sunday of month, but with the combination of an Expreszo group (aged 18-26), a new fixed time for this will be sought. This will be done in consultation with the supervisors and the target group. Activities might include games, crafts, watching a film, but most of all, we chat a lot and make new friends. In this way, you and the other volunteers ensure that the young people can be completely themselves and get to know other LGBTQ+ young people.
What will you do?
  • Together with other supervisors, you will organise activities such as watching a film together, theme afternoons, or visiting an event together such as the Leeuwarder pride. You will work together with the coordinator of Jong & Out and Expreszo. He or she helps set up the group, is the contact for questions and shares the responsibility;
  • Creating a safe environment during activities;
  • Answering any questions (from the target group itself) or questions of a substantive nature (and where this is not possible: referral to other organisations).
You...
  • Are someone who has an affinity with this target group and has experience working with young people;
  • Bursting with energy to put your creativity into organising the meetings;
  • Are approachable and use clear and simple language;
  • Can provide structure within a group;
  • Maintains balance between safe proximity and guarding appropriate distance;
  • Have sense and time to commit 8 hours a month to this wonderful group;
  • Have a lot of desire to get involved in a beautiful way for the LGBTQ+ community in Sneek and the surrounding area!
What do you get in return?
  • A membership at COC Friesland;
  • Volunteer outings at least twice a year;
  • Travel allowance;
  • A brilliant entry on your CV;
  • And above all, an unforgettable time filled with great memories and new friends.
