    Description

    Radiant G Circle is Girls Empowerment Network’s weekly recurring school-based program. Each semester, Girls Empowerment Network staff, interns, and volunteers work with girls to increase their self-efficacy, resiliency, and positive connection to peers and role models. With support from the Girls Empowerment Network program staff, interns, volunteers, and peers in Central Texas, Girl Connect equips girls in grades 3-12 with the skills they need to navigate girlhood.

    As a Radiant G Circle volunteer, you will attend weekly sessions at a local school and act as a co-facilitator alongside the Girls Empowerment Network program lead, all while forming encouraging and caring relationships with the girls in the program. Volunteers lead ice breakers, activities, facilitate discussions, and provide assistance to the Girls Empowerment Network program lead on-site.

    As a direct service volunteer, you can choose to volunteer with Radiant G Circle in either of the following ways:

    * Co-facilitate a weekly school group that takes place during the school day between 8AM-3PM and lasts for 1½ hours.

    * Co-facilitate a weekly afterschool group that takes place between the hours of 3PM-5:45PM and lasts for 2 hours. 

    Important notes about this volunteer opportunity:

    * Volunteers are assigned to a specific school in Central Texas and will be required to commit to the same time and day every week for the entirety of the semester.

    * Radiant G Circlevolunteers are required to attend a virtual Direct Service Volunteer Training (trainings for the 2025-2026 school year are available in August and September). Volunteers are also required to complete a secure online background check.

    * Girls Empowerment Network prefers that volunteers make a two-semester minimum commitment. Consistency is key for the girls we serve and we want to ensure that volunteers are able to commit to our programs and the girls they work with.

    * We anticipate that Fall 2025 semester programming will begin in September/early October.

    If you are interested/available to volunteer in-person each week with our Radiant G Circle program, please fill out this form https://form.jotform.com/240938865135162
