In our criminal cases—whether involving more serious harm (like burglary or attempted homicide) or lower-level offenses (like theft or criminal mischief)—there are times when directly harmed individuals cannot or do not wish to participate. In these situations, we seek Surrogate Impacted Parties—volunteers who have experienced a similar type of harm—to represent the human impact in the restorative process.

What You'll Do:
-Join a facilitated Community Conference as a surrogate for the impacted party
-Share your lived experience of a similar harm to help the responsible party understand the deeper impact of their actions
-Support a meaningful and empathetic conversation that focuses on accountability and healing
-Contribute to co-creating repair agreements with the responsible party

Training & Support:
We’ll provide full training through our self-paced Community Conference Training Manual and work closely with you to ensure you feel prepared and supported throughout the process. We welcome volunteers with lived experience across a wide range of harm—from shoplifting to more serious crimes—who feel ready to support others through restorative dialogue.

In some of our criminal cases, there is no directly participating harmed party—such as when someone’s property is damaged, but the person impacted is unavailable or unwilling to participate. In these cases, RJ still happens with trained Community Representatives who help speak to the broader impact on our shared community.

What You'll Do:
-Participate in Community Conferences as a community voice
-Speak to how harms like these affect public trust, safety, and wellbeing
-Engage in dialogue that promotes reflection, accountability, and repair
-Model empathy and active listening

Training & Support:
We provide all the training you need, including our self-paced Community Conferencing Training Manual and personalized preparation for each case. No prior experience is necessary—just a willingness to listen, share, and support healing. It’s especially helpful if you’re active in the community or have some awareness of how crime and harm affect those around us.

Looking to make a difference and build your skills? Join STEMS4Girls as a Volunteer Assistant and help us inspire the next generation of scientists, engineers, and innovators! In this role, you’ll support our Volunteer Coordinator with recruitment, onboarding, and volunteer engagement—all while gaining valuable experience in nonprofit management and community outreach. If you’re organized, people-friendly, and passionate about youth and STEM education, we’d love to have you on the team!

The Meek-Eaton Southeastern Regional Black Archives Research Center and Museum (MEBA) was created in the early 1970s with the motto of its founder, Dr. James N. Eaton, Sr., “African American history is the history of America.” Now home to over 500,000 priceless artifacts, memorabilia, and collections, the institution strives daily to document, educate and promote African Americans’ rich contributions to history in Florida and the larger southeastern region of the United States with the collaborative efforts of Florida A&M University. A MEBA volunteer helps support this mission by assisting in exhibit preparation, managing guided tours, and participating in the museum’s promotion to the community. Their contributions, particularly in community engagement and guest interaction, are vital for fulfilling our mission to preserve and share our collections with the public.

The ideal volunteer should possess strong written and verbal communication skills, along with excellent attention to detail and organizational abilities. Basic computer skills, particularly proficiency in Microsoft Office, are required; experience with software such as Omeka S and aTOm is a plus. An interest in African American history, cultural preservation, or museum and archival work is highly encouraged.

The volunteer should be capable of working both independently and collaboratively in a professional environment. While not required, previous customer service or public-facing experience is considered beneficial.  We are generally open to the public from Tuesday through Friday, from 10:00AM to 4:00PM, and on Saturdays from 11:00AM to 3:00PM.  We encourage Saturdays the most for commitment, but the schedule is generally flexible, with a minimum of at least 6 hours per month.  All work will be performed on-site at the Meek-Eaton Black Archives Research Center and Museum, located on the campus of Florida A&M University.  The full address is 445 Robert and Trudie Perkins Way, Tallahassee, FL 32307.

Only 3% of high-performing, under-resourced students end up in a great first career experience. On our social platform, professionals like you can help change that.

Here's how:

1. Sign up via your computer at my.backrs.com or by downloading the Backrs mobile app from the Apple App or Google Play Stores.

2. Tell us a little about your background and experiences by completing your profile. This takes 5 mins. (Up to 15 if you'd like to give students more details about your hobbies and interests.)

3. We add you to identity-based, regional, university, and career-path Affinity Networks where you can connect with students you're well-positioned to support.

4. In Networks, you can answer students' questions, post resources or job/internship opportunities, and share insights into your college and career journey by responding to Backstage Pass posts. Though each of these actions takes a few minutes, they all have meaningful impacts on young people.

5. If you'd like to play a more involved role in a student's journey, you can join their panel of backrs. This enables you to view their goals, post on their personal feed, schedule Zoom check-ins, and even contribute to their Flourish Fund. It's a great choice for those looking to offer low-lift, relationship-driven support.

Research shows that cross-class relationships are the biggest predictors of social mobility. And financial margin increases the odds of college persistence four-fold.

We partner with schools and youth organizations to recruit committed high school and college students into our community. Then, by removing the barriers the keep well-resourced adults from connecting with under-resourced young people, our technology builds bridges across socioeconomic strata, enabling people like you to empower students like Diego R.

Diego R. joined Backrs so he could pursue his dream of becoming a biomedical engineer. Thanks to his talent, hard work, and the support he's received from his backrs, he's well on his way to making that dream a reality. As he explained:

"My brother was born with Chronic Kidney Disease. He’s the man who gives me the strength to pursue Biomedical Engineering and become an accomplished technician. I strive to make the lives of those who suffer like him better. I want to be the change he needs to be healthy."

All of the students in our community are driven to build a better world; when they're given the resources to do so, everyone around them benefits.

Being a great backr isn’t about grand gestures or having all the answers. It’s about the small things: sharing a word of encouragement. Passing along a helpful resource. Making an introduction. These actions make a big difference--take it from some of our current backrs: 

"As a backr, I love the opportunity to support and mentor my three proteges as they grow and develop. I feel grateful to be able to guide and shape their future in a positive way. Through Backrs, I have been able to watch them grow into confident and capable individuals, and it has given me a sense of purpose and fulfillment that I can't put into words. It's made a tremendous difference in my life to see them achieve their goals and know that I played a role in helping them get there."

- Ahmed Dawood, Marketer at Apple

"Backrs gives me an opportunity to utilize my expertise to provide mentoring and support to students. Even though my students are a couple time zones away, I have the flexibility to connect with them on my time and have been dedicated to checking my app weekly at minimum to engage in conversations and answer questions. Its exciting to celebrate their wins and talk about future plans. Mentoring was very impactful in my life so it gives me joy to give back in this way."

- Lori Hunt, College Provost

Voting is the backbone of our democracy. Voting depends on having dedicated election workers to serve every voter and ensure that ballots are counted accurately. Being an election worker lets you patriotically serve your community in a critical position of trust. Although your service may only be for a few days each election year, your work will have a lasting impact throughout your community for years to come.

Election workers (also known as poll workers) are members of the local community who work at voting sites on Election Day, during Early Voting, or at our office processing Vote-by-Mail ballots. They are short-term paid employees of the Elections Office. Leon County relies on around one thousand election workers each election to staff voting sites, help voters, and run the election. 

Depending on your position, your duties may include greeting voters, verifying voter ID information, handing out ballots, setting up equipment, using a computer, and handling paperwork. You will need to dress and act in a non-partisan manner and treat all voters with dignity and respect. 

To serve as an election worker you must meet these requirements:

You cannot serve as an election worker if you are a candidate on the ballot.

If you have a disability that prevents you from fulfilling one or more of these requirements, please contact us and we will make every attempt to accommodate you.

Like all government offices, we are an E-Verify employer. All employees, including temporary election workers, must complete an I-9 form and supply documentation upon hire to confirm that they may legally work in the U.S.  

We pay election workers for their service. Compensation is based on the position you work and includes payment for training. We will mail you a check shortly after Election Day.

If you are interested in serving as an Election Worker, please complete the election worker application.

Once you complete the application, we will review it and contact you in several days.

We encourage you to apply now, even if the next election is many months away.

Divine Revelations Ministries, Geeks & Gramps Program Assistant Youth  Coordinator 

Divine Revelations Ministries, Inc. (DRMI) is a 501c3 charitable organization with a mission to help all people to live more enriching lives. We accomplish our mission by administering six core secular (non-religious) programs under our nonprofit umbrella, including the DRMI Geeks & Gramps (grandparents) Program (G&GP) evidence-driven Control the Fire! ©2015 Anger Management Program for adults and teens (CTF) and Reclaiming Freedom from Addictions & Substances Program ©2022 (RFAS) for adults at correctional facilities, Leon County Detention Center, and Leon County Probation. We also distribute food/clothing to the homeless and those in need; and sponsor free community awareness events. DRMI’s life-enrichment programs and wraparound services assist the most vulnerable in the Big Bend 8-County region of Florida. Programming is targeted to youth ages 8-18 and seniors, court-ordered clients, incarcerated and returning citizens and at-risk youth and adults.

Details about the DRMI Geeks & Gramps Program

Under the corporate umbrella of DRMI, the G&GP was created in 2019 to bridge the digital and generational divide between youth and seniors. The program is multi-generational and serves two main demographics – youth and seniors. Youth complete a 4-week workshop series including professional and interpersonal skills featuring community professionals, meaningful learning activities, and youth are introduced to the fields of STEAM as career options. Youth learn to embrace collaboration with other youth and seniors, address ageism and cultivate intergenerational relationships with older generations, while paying it forward through volunteerism. Youth have the capacity to learn soft and hard skills to be more successful in school and as productive members of the community in general. Youth are designated as: Navigators (ages 8-12), Demonstrators (ages 13-16) and Facilitators (ages 17-19).

The DRMI G&GP is the only program in the Big Bend area of Florida that partners youth 8-19 as SMEs to train/help seniors learn the stewardship of digital technology and cultivate intergenerational relationships with a goal of reducing feelings of isolation/loneliness. Since its inception in 2019, the program has served 61 youth who have completed 72 workshop sessions and 571 volunteer hours. We have served 288 seniors at demo events and two (2) seniors have volunteered for the Senior Moments series.

We are seeking interns with an interest in assisting in the coordination of the youth components of the DRMI Geeks & Gramps Program including the development, implementation, and evaluation of the program.

Details about the DRMI Geeks & Gramps Program

Under the corporate umbrella of DRMI, the G&GP was created in 2019 to bridge the digital and generational divide between youth and seniors. Populations of seniors continue to increase as baby boomer reach retirement age. The Census Bureau 2020 population estimates, 54.1 million Americans are age 65+ with Florida ranking nationally as #2 in population of seniors. Like nationally, there remains a notable generational and digital divide between youth and seniors in our local areas.

The program is a multi-generational and serves two main demographics – youth and seniors. The goals of the program are to (1) empower seniors to stay connected with loved ones and remain engaged with their community in an effort to combat feelings of isolation and loneliness; (2) bridge the digital divide by helping seniors learn digital literacy and stewardship through group and one-on-one personalized coaching from youth; and (3) bridge the generational divide by connecting generations through technology while providing meaningful volunteer experiences for youth ages 8-18 and older adults. The program shows potential for keeping older adults engaged in life-long learning, social inclusion, cultivation of intergenerational relationships and development of leadership and work-readiness skills for youth.

The DRMI G&GP is the only program in the Big Bend area of Florida that partners youth 8-19 as SMEs to train/help seniors learn the stewardship of digital technology and cultivate intergenerational relationships with a goal of reducing feelings of isolation/loneliness.

MathPals:

The transition from middle school to high school is a critical time in a student’s life. Mentoring in middle school in the form of intervention can often decrease the number of students who drop out during that tough transition. For those students who dropped out, passing the End-of-Course exams was often the largest hurdle, in particular the Algebra 1 End-of-Course exam.

Only 27% of Leon County Schools’ 2013-2014 level one students passed the Algebra 1 End of Course Exam.

This year, to work to increase the Algebra I passing rate in Leon County, United Way of the Big Bend is implementing the MathPals program at two local middle schools. MathPals will match caring volunteers one-to-one with middle school students who are struggling with the Algebra 1 skills needed to pass the End-of-Course exams. The MathPals curriculum will encourage students to master the Algebra 1 skills through exploration of math in the real world, collaborative learning, and independent practice.
