Americorp Recruitment Continues
Do you know someone who wants to take the path less traveled, to break the status quo, stop talking about the problem, and be the solution? We are recruiting for the United Way of Southeast AmeriCorps Program. This is a great opportunity for someone who would like to mentor and tutor kids, work with adults who are striving to get degrees or certificates, and work in pre-school programs or a STEM education program. 

As an AmeriCorps host, the United Way’s responsibilities include the recruitment, placement, and evaluation of AmeriCorps members for 12 positions at 10 different sites in Juneau. For the 2022-23 season members will serve with Southeast Alaska Association for the Education of Young Children (AEYC-SEA), Juneau Suicide Prevention Coalition, Little Eagle Raven Childcare/Headstart, Juneau Elementary Schools, and Shéiyi X̱aat Hít (Spruce Root House) Youth Shelter.
