Promise Corps College and Career Ambassadors

Posted by EducationWorks on July 27, 2015

AmeriCorps – Promise Corps College and Career Ambassadors (CCAs) will be placed in one of four high schools in Philadelphia’s Promise Zone. The high schools are West Philadelphia, Overbrook, Paul Robeson, and Parkway West. CCAs will work with high school students and families to ensure that they graduate from high school with strong skill sets, and develop awareness of paths and challenges related to postsecondary opportunities, while working with students to help them develop long-term plans leading to postsecondary entry. CCAs will work with school teachers, administrators, and guidance counselors to identify and recruit students who need additional support. AmeriCorps members will be provided a living stipend and an education award about completion of term.

Those interested should forward their resumes to Maceo Hood, HR Director via fax at 215-221-6911 or email him at maceohood@educationworks.org.
