About this Event
BLOOM365 is excited to once again offer a VIRTUAL Winter Peer Advocate Academy on ZOOM!
This immersive and highly engaging three-day Peer Advocate Academy educates and activates teens (13-18 years old) to promote safe and healthy relationships for all and provides opportunity for teens from across the nation to connect and collaborate to achieve a common goal: uproot abuse in a generation!
Peer Advocate Academy participants will experience an interactive and inspiring 3 days of thought-provoking training delivered in 4 tracks:
1: EDUCATE: Recognize the red flags, root causes, and risk factors of Interpersonal Violence (dating violence, sexual assault, domestic violence, gender-based violence, stalking, etc.) and enhance skills for building healthy relationships.
2: ADVOCATE: Respond to and support peers "going through it" by learning how to L.E.V.E.L.™ with them. (Listen. Empathize. Validate. Encourage. Link to resources.)
3: ACTIVATE: Gather tools to engage 10% of peers and trusted adults in local schools and communities to actively promote safey, respect, consent, and empathy as social norms.
4: AMPLIFY: Elevate teen voices and lived experiences to uproot abuse in a generation.
We welcome all teens who want to learn about preventing and responding to interpersonal violence, but we especially encourage teens passionate about ending interpersonal violence to attend.
