The Sexual Assault Recovery and Prevention (SARP) Center is looking for a professional, dedicated and self-motivated male applicant for the Associate Educator position.

Presentation audiences consist of middle school, high school and college students, as well as members of youth groups, community agencies, and the general public. The Associate Educator also facilitates the MyStrength campaign which works with young men in small group settings. The campaign centers on the theme of “My Strength is Not for Hurting,” and is designed to raise awareness of sexual violence among youth and highlight the vital role that young men can play in fostering healthy, safe relationships.

The ideal candidate will have public speaking or education presentation experience; commitment and an understanding to ending sexual assault; effective time management skills; flexibility, creativity, excellent public relations skills and an openness to presenting sensitive concepts to diverse populations. A bachelor's degree is not required, though an education/background in teaching, public speaking, psychology, women’s studies, social work, victim advocacy or related fields is preferred. An English/ Spanish bilingual speaker is also preferred but not required.
