NEWS AND EVENTS

The Case Western Reserve University, Department of Family Medicine, Center for Adolescent Health (CAH) is looking for volunteers to help administer the Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) in local Cuyahoga County 7th and 8th grade Middle Schools. Volunteers will be needed from February through June. The time commitment is usually 1-2 hours but could be longer or shorter depending on size of school. All volunteers receive a $20 gift card from Target or Barnes & Noble (which can be redeemed at the CASE bookstore) for each time they volunteer. If you have never volunteered before, a short training covering issues of confidentiality and organization of the survey process is needed. Transportation assistance is available for those in need. This is a great networking opportunity for students and can be used for professional development hours or class volunteer requirement hours. Past volunteers have found employment because of the connections made through volunteering. Clothing attire is business casual. Over 70 schools will be approached for YRBS participation so the volunteer opportunities are plentiful. If you are interested please email Edward Hill at edward.hill@case.edu to be added to the list of interested volunteers. If you have any questions you can also call Cindy at 216-368-6742.
