13. JOBS---YOUTH /Paid Summer Opportunities Available.
Paid Summer Opportunities Available
Two Summer Internships are available at the Federation for Children with Special Needs for 7 weeks in July and August 2011. The Federation is proud to be a part of the Martin Luther King Summer Scholars initiative (formerly known as Boston Summer Scholars), sponsored by John Hancock Financial in response to Mayor Menino's call to action in support of Boston teens.
This year, the MLK Summer Scholars program is joined by Boston University and Partners HealthCare in paying tribute to the legacy of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. here in Boston. Dr. King lived in Boston while completing his doctorate at Boston University from 1951-1955. The renaming of the Summer Scholars program underscores King's message of social change through hard work.
Employment for this opportunity will be at The Federation for Children with Special Needs, which is a parent advocacy organization that serves parents of children at risk and those with special health and education needs through the provision of information, resources, presentations and phone calls from those seeking support. Services are routinely provided in English, Spanish, Portuguese and Chinese and other languages as needed. The Federation is conveniently located at Renaissance Park, immediately adjacent to the Ruggles “T” Stop.
The Federation is seeking two MLK Summer Scholars; one with interest and skills in Agency Administration and one in Information Technology. Interns will work approximately 17.5 hours per week including a weekly Friday morning training seminar.
Student interns must meet the following criteria:
· At least 15 years old
· Resident of Boston
· In high school or a recent (2011) high school graduate
Along with gaining valuable workplace experience, students will attend a series of life skills workshops, focused on building their own legacies, each Friday morning at Boston University's Agganis Arena, 925 Commonwealth Ave. Boston, MA.
MLK Summer Scholars is an outgrowth of The Boston Globe Foundation's Opportunity for Unity initiative and John Hancock's Summer of Opportunity program.
If interested, please send application and cover letter to Sara Miranda, Associate Executive Director 1135 Tremont St Suite 420, Boston, MA 02120 or e-mail: smiranda@fcsn.org. Application deadline is Friday, June 10, 2011 by 5 p.m.
Applicants should attach a one page cover letter explaining why the student wishes to be an MLK Summer Scholar and what he or she has accomplished or plans to accomplish that reflects Dr. King’s philosophies.
Selected students are asked to attend the press kickoff at the Agganis Arena at Boston University at a date to be determined.
Students are required to attend Friday morning training workshops from 8:30 -11 a.m., every Friday from July 8 through August 12 at Agganis Arena.
