Family Advisor Opportunity
Help assist and educate Long Island families
Use your voice, become a family advisor.
In partnership with Allied Physicians Group, Long Island Cares is looking for a family advisor to work alongside us in addressing pediatric food insecurity.
The Goals
- Provide ongoing access to nutritious foods.
- Better understanding of the needs of families, such as access to nutritious food.
- Educate families about food insecurity, health, and nutrition.
How much time? And will I be compensated?
Not much, and YES!!
The family advisor role can be in person, online, and/or in the community. It can be done an hour a week or a few hours a day. This depends on your level of engagement and the synergy of the focus groups and nutrition workshops.
Funding for this initiative is one year. Therefore, we are looking for a one-year commitment from the advisor.
The family advisor will be compensated up to $3,000 for their efforts.
If interested, please submit the form to the right.
