Are you wondering what the SCPOC will be doing this summer?

Do you know what the Sonoma County Peer Outreach Coalition will be working on this summer? To give you a heads up the Peer Leaders will be working on the “Lets Find the Answers/Vamos a Encontrar las Respuestas” campaign. All of the postings on Facebook and our blogs will be in English and Spanish. On our Facebook page we will post resources in the community for teens to access, questions, and facts. Aside from the monthly meetings, the Peer Leaders attend trainings to expand their knowledge on issues related to mental health. One of the “Lets Find the Answers/Vamos a Encontrar las Respuestas” goal is to promote teen wellness in Sonoma County by using social media sites. Another goal is to obtain 500 likes on our Facebook page so far we have 360. If you haven’t liked our page I encourage you to do so. If you are quick enough and you "Like" our page before June 30th you will have the opportunity to take our quiz and you will be entered to win gift cards from various places including Forever 21, Juice Shack, Macy’s, and even gas money.
The Peer Leaders range from the ages of 16-24 and they come from different high schools including Elsie Allen, Maria Carillo, Piner, and the Santa Rosa Junior College. To learn more about each and everyone one of them go onto our website and click on the “about us” tab.
The Sonoma County Peer Outreach Coalition is also very excited to table at community events and to volunteer in projects related to raising awareness on mental health. If you are planning an event and you would like the Peer Leaders to come and table they will be glad to do so. On August 13th the Peer Leaders will be at the Summer Day and Night Festival volunteering. We hope to see you there!!! Also help the Sonoma County Peer Outreach Coalition of Sonoma County meet their goal of 500 Facebook likes!
