AmeriCorps
*Goodwill* – Migrant Education Program – Concord, NH
The goal of the Migrant Education Program is to ensure that migrant students have equal opportunity to reach challenging academic standards and prepare them for responsible citizenship, further learning, and productive employment. The Granite State Education Corps places AmeriCorps members with nonprofits to support youth (grades 4-12) that have been impacted by child abuse and/or the foster care system. Members will take a strengths-based approach, implementing Social Emotional Learning (SEL) practices, mentoring youth, providing parenting classes, and supporting foster youth aging out of foster care in schools, after school programs, and family resource centers throughout New Hampshire to increase resilience, develop human capital, and ultimately increase self-sufficiency of the youth.
Member Duties : The AmeriCorps member will conduct one-on-one meetings and home visits with youth in the program, many of which are at risk of failing or dropping out due to frequent moves, cultural differences, and language barriers. They will also recruit volunteers from the community to mentor youth. French, Spanish, or Swahili proficiency is required.
