TechMission has 80 one-year full-time paid AmeriCorps urban ministry internships serving at-risk communities in Boston, Chicago, Denver, and Los Angeles. We are trying to place by September, so if you know of anyone who might be interested in one of these positions, could you forward this message to them?
They can find out more and apply at: http://www.techmissioncorps.org. The following positions are available:
K-8th Grade After School Program Coordinator (TMC): Offered in: Boston, Central/Western MA, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Denver
This AmeriCorps position will assist with a K-8th grade after school program based in a church or faith-based organization, serving through mentoring, providing basic technology activities, coordinating volunteers, and providing overall support. A typical day of work for the After School Program Coordinator involves preparing lessons and activities for the participating youth, assisting them with their homework, leading lessons activities (especially with regard to technology), supervising their snack and outdoor play sessions, supervising volunteers, assisting with behavior management, keeping accurate records on program participants, soliciting and managing in-kind donations, and assisting the Site Director in the day-to-day administration of the program.
Teen Program Coordinator Offered in: Boston, Central/Western MA, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Denver
This AmeriCorps position will assist with a teen program based in a church or faith-based organization, serving through tutoring, mentoring, college prep, assisting with web-based academic enrichment elements, conducting community & parent outreach, assisting with community and school partnerships, planning college visits and workshops as directed, coordinating volunteers, and providing overall support. The main responsibilities of the teen program coordinator depend heavily on the season. During recruitment season (mainly the early fall, late winter and late spring), much of the coordinator's time is spent visiting high schools and local Community Based Organizations to make presentations to students about our college-prep programs. However, when student recruitment is not the main priority, a typical day might include counseling a student on strategically managing the demands of high school life; responding to email or phone inquiries about financial aid or college application questions/concerns; developing the curriculum; and facilitating a workshop on anything from how to develop a vision for your life to how to fill out the Common Application.TMC)
