About the Internship

Duties:

The internship would work with a combination of programs at an Outreach site. The position would assist with running or developing a program (their own interest and talents that would meet approval guidelines), field trips and swimming program. The intern would assist with the development, implementation, and assessment of the program.

Population Served:

We serve ages 5-18 low income youth.

Community Need:

Providing youth with a safe and fun environment is key to keeping youth out of harm's way in the community. Many of these youth would be home unsupervised or out on the streets. Providing quality supervised programs is essential for the families we serve. There are many academic needs but we also want to find strengths in youth and teens.

Community Impact:

Many youth do not have the ability to pay for programs such as music, art, swimming and we depend on staff, volunteers and other community members to provide these opportunities to youth. The intern could make an impact on one or many youth with their time. Intern will work directly with youth and teens.
