Volunteering has been demonstrated to increase various outcomes of health and well-being. However, it has not been utilized as a therapeutic tool for transitional aged youth (TAY), who demonstrate disparate outcomes in various areas of health and well-being. The author hypothesizes that engaging in volunteering with application of the “8 C’s” framework will lead to improved well-being and empowerment. The author designed We Rise by Lifting Others (WRBLO), a nine-week program to engage TAY in volunteering while incorporating opportunities to experience the “8 C’s”: Control, Choice, Confidence, feeling Capable, Connection, Community, being Cared for by others, and Caring for others. In addition to the “8 C’s”, key components of WRBLO include participating in a weekly volunteer project, virtual group meetings, peer and mentor support from others with lived experience in the foster care system, and opportunities for skill building. This innovative program aims to increase well-being and empowerment outcomes for TAY and provide evidence that volunteering can be an effective tool for marginalized communities.
