NJ Bonner VISTA Fellows - PEI Kids
 
 
 
The New Jersey Bonner VISTA Fellow Program is a post-college national volunteer service program developed in partnership with the Center for Community Engaged Learning & Research at The College of New Jersey (TCNJ) and the Bonner Foundation. New Jersey Bonner VISTA Fellows serve full-time for one year to enhance volunteerism, develop economic opportunities, and address policy issues across central New Jersey. The Communication and Volunteer Management Specialist will work directly at PEI Kids. Members will join a larger cohort of members for an on-site orientation and monthly trainings to develop knowledge and skills. PEI Kids is an organization that has worked for 29 years to ensure the safety of all children in the greater Mercer County area. PEI Kids employs a systemic approach of prevention and intervention. The goal is to keep kids safe from sexual abuse, parental neglect, bullying, cyber-bullying, and gang prevention. To address this, PEI Kids provides crisis intervention services for child victims of sexual abuse, prevention and education programs in 70 Mercer County schools, juvenile intervention services for first time offenders, and visitation services for children in foster care and their biological parents. In 2013, PEI Kids served over 16,000 children and youth in the Mercer County area.
