Program Assistant positions at the National 4-H Youth Conference Center
Young, Molly
Do you have a passion for government, history, political science, working with youth, public speaking, or leadership? If so, apply for the position of Program Assistant (PA) at the National 4-H Youth Conference Center! Application deadlines are approaching soon and we want to give you an opportunity to make a difference during your spring or summer semester. PAs will touch the lives of thousands of students from all over the United States while working for the Wonders of Washington (WOW) or Citizenship Washington Focus (CWF) programs in Washington, DC.
The WOW program gives young people the chance to explore, develop, and refine the skills necessary to become outstanding citizens and leaders in their home communities. Using the living classroom of Washington, D.C., youth learn about the history of our nation, its various leaders, and how they can put their skills of leadership and citizenship into use when they return home. Throughout the spring semester, WOW Program Assistants receive opportunities for professional development not only through interactions with youth groups, but also through interactions with various departments of National 4-H Council to develop their skills in the nonprofit sector. Applications are due November 15, 2010 and application material can be found here: http://www.wowwashington.org/programassistant.aspx
CWF gives 4-Hers the opportunity to strengthen their communication, leadership, and other citizenship skills on a national level. Nearly 2,000 young people exchange ideas, practice respect, and form friendships with other youth from diverse backgrounds throughout the summer. Through hands-on activities, simulations, and tours of various monuments and memorials, participants figure out what citizenship means to them and develop action plans to make a difference in their home communities. As a CWF Program Assistant, you will create, develop, and facilitate curriculum to be used during the 2011 program. Applications are due January 18, 2011, and application material can be found here: http://www.citizenshipwashingtonfocus.org/programassistant.aspx
We are looking for individuals with at least a high school diploma (preferably some college experience) and a passion for working with young people. If you are a college student looking for credit towards graduation, National 4-H Council will happily work with you and your school to make this possible. Apply if one of these positions sounds like a good fit for you or pass along to anyone you know who may be interested. We are always looking for qualified people to apply for the internship of a lifetime! Don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions.
