LEAP QT Tutor Counselor

This position is part of the Lyndon Economic opportunity AmeriCorps Program (LEAP). LEAP is a national service program that places AmeriCorps members with non-profit organizations throughout the Northeast Kingdom (NEK) of Vermont and surrounding areas to support those organizations in building capacity and expanding their educational and/or environmental services that many communities rely on. LEAP supports members in their path to educational and career attainment through direct service, on-going trainings, and professional development opportunities offered during the service year. The goal of the Upward Bound program is to provide participants with the skills and motivation necessary for access to and success in post-secondary education. Upward Bound students are modest income, first-generation college bound high school students at Lyndon Institute, who have shown a strong desire to attend college. Upward Bound strives to help students develop confidence and love of learning. Upward Bound offers an array of academic, personal enrichment, and college/career services designed to supplement high school education and tailored to address specific student needs, including a residential summer program. The summer program exposes students to life in a residential, allows for intensive, rigorous academic work, and creates space for students to learn valuable social and decision making skills. Upward Bound students learn the skills necessary to be agents of change in their own lives, their communities, and the world at large. We are seeking residential AmeriCorps members called Tutor Counselors (TC’s) for the 2025 summer program.
