Youth Voice & Social Media Specialist VISTA-Teen Hope- C3TC
 
 
 
Empowering our clients and improving our program through client voice is an important part of the Teen HOPE and Pathways programs. We have strong collaborative relationships with state and local governmental agencies, community based organizations, area businesses, and schools, which we leverage to build opportunities and supports for the young parents and children we serve. While a Public Health Nurse focuses on reducing the emotional, familial, and health barriers associated with early childbearing and parenting, the Pathways staff provides daily coaching designed to keep minor setbacks in check and amass the tangible resources needed to keep the parents connected and on-track. The overall goal of this position is to build capacity within the Teen HOPE and Pathways Programs to utilize student voice to engage, reconnect and retain teen parent families and youth on probation in meaningful education and training programs leading to improved stability and living-wage jobs. **This position is part of the C3 Twin Cities VISTA Program. C3 Twin Cities offers a unique cohort experience rooted in a social justice framework. It also offers $300 of monthly housing support, transportation support and professional development opportunities. Check out www.c3twincities.org for more details.
