The Northfield Healthy Community Initiative is looking to recruit up to 23 AmeriCorps Promise Fellows across youth-serving organizations in Northfield and Faribault.
Its mission is to “support young people in accessing equitable educational opportunities that foster their individual assets, honor their voices, and prepare them for high school graduation.” Typical responsibilities include goal setting, mentoring, and organizing after-school clubs, and potential applicants might be a good fit if they are considering work as an educator, wanting to help underserved students, or looking for experience before grad school. A significant number of Carleton and St. Olaf students have participated in the program.
