Description
*Public Health AmeriCorps - Youth Engagement - Maine
Goodwill NNE's Public Health AmeriCorps (PHA) program places members with community organizations in Maine to address CDC determined public health needs for the most underserved populations.
Maine communities are home to pockets of refugees and immigrants, in cities and towns like Lewiston, Portland, and Cherryfield, ME.
New American youth face significant barriers to success-often influenced by trauma and chaos in their past, learning a new language, and adapting to a new culture-and frequently enter the education system significantly behind their peers.
Public Health Youth Development members strive to narrow this gap by increasing social and emotional skills and academic engagement among students, grades 4-12, who have been impacted by Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), including immigrant and refugee youth and members of the Wabanaki tribe (grades PHA members work with community partner agencies to develop and carry out localized, evidence-based interventions, directly serving youth while increasing organizational capacity.
Member placements in Greater Portland include Portland Public School; Gateway Community Services; Portland Housing Authority; Baxter Academy for Technology and Science; Center for Grieving Children; Memorial Middle and South Portland High Schools; My Place Teen Centers; and Intercultural Community Center.
Coastal sites include Washington Academy and Maine Seacoast Mission in the Downeast region and Brunswick High School and UMaine 4-H in MidCoast, ME.
Placements in the Lakes and Mountain region include Lewiston High School; UMaine Extension; Molly Ockett School; RSU 10; RSU 4; and Durham Community School.
YMCA River Runners is located in the Maine Highlands region and Kennebec Valley hosts Maine Academy of Natural Sciences. Further help on this page can be found by clicking here.Member Duties :
