Why do you think you are the best candidate for the job? What do you think are the biggest issues facing LGBTQ homeless youth and why? What would you bring to the AFC Peer Outreach Educator team? What skills do you hope to gain from this internship?
21 Peer Outreach BENEFITS OF PEER OUTREACH They are part of AFC programming and can explain what the experience is like for them. Their peers trust them more. They know where other young people congregate. Since they are living or have lived the experiences of their peers, they understand the best ways to approach those living on the streets. They are better able to convince their peers to get off the streets.
22 Overnight Services Goal of Outreach is to link young people into services and get them off the streets. First, meet outreach worker. Second point of contact overnight crisis drop-in center.
