From fall to spring semester, our student volunteers, PAVE, work closely with the Violence Prevention Team to build a safer, more supportive 四虎影视 community. Volunteers raise awareness about violence affecting college campuses and engage 四虎影视 students in prevention initiatives. 

In PAVE, volunteers can engage in anti-violence work in many ways: facilitation and presenting, outreach, event planning and support, community mobilization, marketing, and more! As peer educators, PAVE students play a crucial role in supporting prevention initiatives across campus. Volunteers receive ongoing professional development and training on violence prevention and trauma-informed support.

Students from all majors and experience backgrounds are encouraged to apply. Please  follow us on Instagram for updates: @Wellness四虎影视.

General program expectations include:

  • Attend initial 10-hour onboarding training at the beginning of fall semester 
  • Attend monthly meetings       
  • Participate in 10 hours of volunteer activities a semester
  • Uphold departmental best practices
