Description

The Green River College Center for Transformational Wellness and Benefits Hub is a one stop shop for student support services. There are four main focus areas of the center, Violence Prevention and Support, Gators Thrive, Parenting & Pregnant Student Support, and Benefits Hub.

The Violence Prevention and Support program implements campus-wide strategies to prevent interpersonal violence and provide support to all members of the campus community that have experienced Interpersonal Violence (stalking, sexual assault, and/or relationship violence).
Gators Thrive is dedicated to supporting all students in and seeking recovery from substance use by empowering them to make recovery, supportive decisions about their health and well-being and raising awareness of and normalizing recovery in our campus community.
Parenting & Pregnant Student Support provides individual support to students who are parenting or will be parenting including grant funding for childcare, case management, and hosting a cross-departmental committee to increase access and support for students how are parenting.
The Benefits Hub offers one-stop financial assistance and enrollment in benefits, including: FAFSA/WASFA assistance, utility assistance, homelessness prevention and housing navigation, financial coaching, food resources, help paying for financial emergencies, enrollment in public benefits, and connections to additional resources.

Micro

Any student placed in the Center for Transformational Wellness and Benefits Hub will be a part of the team that provides coverage of a drop-in space for students to access support. Practicum students will engage with any member of the college community who drops into the space, will provide information and referrals for college and community resources, engage in an intake procedure for students who would like that level of support, and provide emotional support. The Parenting Student Support Intern will work closely with the CCAMPIS Program Specialist and Community Resource Coordinator to provide on-going case management support to students.

Mezzo

The Parenting Student Support Intern with different departments across campus to provide wrap around support for students who are parenting. They will develop and implement programming to increase awareness of resources, and also provide outreach representing the center at campus events, as well as in the larger community.

Macro

Based on the student's level of previous experience, activities may include coordinating with college departments and community resources to develop and maintain referral processes, lead committee meetings, participate in writing/reporting for the grants that fund the center, as well as attending virtual or in-person conferences and lobby days.

Required Experience

There is not any required experience for a placement. The center would be excited to have students apply who have lived experience as a community/technical college student and/or personal experience navigating social service systems.
