LearnServe Program & Student Support VISTA
 
 
 
LearnServe’s mission is to equip high school students from diverse backgrounds with the entrepreneurial vision, tenacity, confidence, and leadership skills needed to tackle social challenges at home and abroad as part of our after school program. Just as important, students learn about themselves and their power as leaders equipped to make positive change. LearnServe’s VISTA project will deepen programming and expand our community with the goal to give even more young people the opportunity to become leaders and changemakers. LearnServe is located in Washington, DC, a hub for education, government, and non-profit sectors, offering unique experiences in the nation’s capital. LearnServe is growing to serve even more young people across the country (and world!), and the Program & Student Support VISTA will be key in helping us support students in new and important ways.

With support from the Programs Director, develop and implement a project plan to improve student supports and measure growth. -Support the development of programming related to 1:1 student check-in’s / Student Engagement across LearnServe programs. -Develop a Professional Development Workshop Series for students to support their growth and development of professional and transferable skills.
