About The Position
Planned Parenthood League of Massachusetts (PPLM) has a simple mission: Care. No Matter What. PPLM has been a leader in promoting sexual health for more than 90 years and we strongly believe that all people deserve care no matter who they are, where they live, or who they love. As the state’s leading provider of sexual and reproductive health services, we educate families and empower youth to make responsible choices. We do all this because we care passionately about helping people lead healthier lives. The Get Real Educator is responsible for facilitating the Get Real Teen Council (GRTC) program in the Metro Boston, Massachusetts area, as well as supporting the implementation of the Get Real curriculum in school and after school settings in accordance with the ASE grant, as needed. The Get Real Teen Council is a year-long program for high school aged young people. The program empowers teenagers to educate their peers, families, and communities about human sexuality and healthy decision making and inspires teens to use their voices to advocate for just and positive sexual attitudes and policies. As such, the Get Real Educator guides Get Real Teen Council members in developing and mastering presentation skills and sexual and reproductive health knowledge, and supports them in spreading knowledge to their peers and community through formal workshops and informal educational conversations. The Get Real Educator is also responsible for helping to build a continuing collaboration between Youth Education, Community Outreach, External Affairs, and the health centers in order to enhance the external presence of Planned Parenthood League of Massachusetts’ education and health services programs. They also work to build and maintain relationships with local schools, after-school programs, and educational community partners through GRTC workshops, Get Real High School programming, and associated programming.
