Share Yourself

Share Yourself is a community volunteer program that matches volunteer coaches with Work First participants. These volunteers share life skills, work experiences, offer advice and encouragement and many other positive qualities. What they provide helps Work First participants deal with everyday problems that often prevent them from being successful on the job and in life.

The program was developed by North Carolina Cooperative Extension, which is sponsored by North Carolina A&T State University and North Carolina State University, in collaboration with the Department of Health and Human Services. The program is offered in local communities by your local Cooperative Extension Center and the county Department of Social Services.
