Come help us save lives! We’re seeking peer intervention trainers for the Overwatch Project, our military and veteran suicide prevention initiative. The Overwatch Project is building the equivalent of the “Friends Don’t Let Friends Drive Drunk” campaign for veterans and service members, only instead of talking about alcohol and vehicles, we are focused on guns and suicide. Through this evidence-based initiative, we save lives by transforming the conversation about firearms and suicide prevention through a comprehensive peer-intervention program that includes direct training and community engagement crafted in a blunt, authentic voice.

We are currently seeking trainers to work on a contract basis, as well as for part-time and/or full-time training positions, depending on location. We encourage you to apply (not through Indeed, but at https://overwatchproject.org/careers) and indicate in your cover letter whether you are interested in a contract, part-time, or full-time position.

Peer Intervention Trainers, who report to the Executive Director, are responsible for the following:

• Deliver peer intervention training presentations on firearms and suicide prevention for veterans, service members, family members and others connected to the military and veteran community
• Deliver trainings to audiences that range from 20-150
• Manage training schedules and any needed travel logistics
• Training schedule will depend on location and availability of trainer
