America s Promise, the organization that resulted from the US Presidents Summit in Philadelphia in 1997, is launching a Youth Partnership Team to help inform their work and lead key initiatives. It s a one-year commitment requiring monthly conference calls and a weekend of training. A couple of the young people will serve on the America s Promise National Advisory Board and Board of Directors. Teenagers attend our programs for academic, social and cultural amelioration. Not only do we provide room and board, but we also pay travel expenses, provide for all trips and excursions with the kids and include a stipend.
Successful candidates can expect to have a challenging, but rewarding and fun-filled summer.
