Contact: Molly Potter, Recruiting Associate, (612) 729-5444

Description: YouthWorks offers several types of summer staff positions/internships. Although each team member shares many of the same job responsibilities, unique areas of leadership define each position. Full-time YouthWorks staff are working year-round to set up the mission sites. All summer staff receive their community information and are trained at the beginning of the summer. For example, YouthWorks does not expect all Work Projects Coordinators to know how to teach home painting prior to being hired. All we ask is that you would be willing to learn.

Staff work together to create a spiritually focused and servant-centered mission site. All staff participate in evening programming in a leadership capacity and interact with youth at every opportunity. Other responsibilities include building relationships with community members, coordinating one meal a day and having a weekly check-in time with your supervisor. Staff must be flexible, teachable and willing to grow in all areas.

Site Director
Experience authentic leadership. Mentor and supervise 3-4 Site Coordinators. Assist them with daily service and ministry projects. Manage finances with integrity and maintain the overall spiritual focus of the mission site. Provide leadership for adult leaders and help them process their mission week as they experience it alongside their youth. Develop lifelong friendships with community members and be changed by their love. Site Directors must be of a post-college age, have previous leadership experience and the ability to manage a team.

Site Coordinators

Kids Club
Enable teenagers to experience the joy of loving kids. Facilitate a daily Kids Club and coordinate morning service opportunities. Provide leadership for participants as they create crafts, plan games, practice songs, and make a Bible story come alive. Come to know and love community kids and their families as you work with them for an entire summer. See life change first hand as teenagers have the chance to love children with Jesus’ love. Kids Club Coordinators must be bold and confident in leading at-risk children.

Program
Help youth see the reason behind why they serve as you interact with them on a daily basis. Love and encourage youth in their experience and faith journey. Partner with and provide leadership for daily work projects, Kids Club or ministry sites. Facilitate fun, meaningful and educational evening activities. Plan and coordinate nightly Club, with your team’s support. Prepare and give a Christ-centered talk based on the summer theme with provided outlines.

Utility
Utility Staff begin the summer assigned to a region, not a specific community. Be a jack of all trades. Serve in a variety of areas. Be trained for several positions and offer support to Site Coordinators. Coordinate daily service activities and see students’ lives change as they experience Christ through service. Support teams with spiritual encouragement and a servant attitude. Staff must be flexible and willing to adapt to changing roles and locations. At some point during the summer, Utility Staff may be permanently placed with a team to fill an open position.

Service
Get to know the various needs of an urban area and discover how volunteers can help a local organization make a difference. Network with social service and ministry organizations to coordinate service opportunities for teenagers. See lives change as teenagers are taken out of their comfort zones and come face to face with Jesus in a new way. Staff must be administratively minded, able to problem solve and manage details. Service Coordinators must also maintain and strengthen partnerships within the community.

Work Projects
Help youth build relationships with community members through work projects. Learn how to set up projects and partner with local community contacts. Teach participants the basics of painting and watch them be transformed as they serve in new ways. See the lasting effect on both community members whose homes have been improved, as well as the teens and adults who completed the repairs. Work Projects Coordinators must have the ability to clearly teach and prepare participants for projects.
