YOUTH VOLUNTEER AND PEER ADVOCATE APPLICATION
Welcome to Paving the Way Foundation Youth Volunteer and Advocacy Program!
The purpose of this Program is to raise awareness about online exploitation, child trafficking and how to prevent it from happening in our communities. We do this through educational programs that empower our youth, their parents and teachers to protect children from sexual exploitation. Peer to peer training and speaking is one of the most effective ways to educate our communities.
