Youth Empowerment Internship 2024

We often hear that the period of youth is a time of preparation. The development of society will certainly depend to a great extent on the effectiveness of the preparations young people make for the world they will inherit. What we should ask, then, is how young people can best prepare themselves for the responsibilities they will have to take on. Many young people are impelled by a vision of transforming their community by empowering the younger generation. As they continue to advance in life, they naturally begin to think about attending university and pursuing a career. 

Terwillegar Youth Empowerment will be offering an exciting summer internship for youth ages 15-24. Youth will gain experience in the community, build leadership skills and make an impact. This summer internship will provide an arena in which knowledge is applied and the intellect developed in the context of the community. Young people will develop capacities in relation to coordinating the junior youth program, learn to consult, and build important leadership qualities. Together, these elements will help them excel in their studies and in their work in the community. Limited spots.
