Trauma Informed-Food Security Advocate-Alternative School

Sitka AmeriCorps Program's mission is to mitigate the effects of high adverse childhood experience (ACEs) scores prevalent in rural Alaskan communities. We aim to do this through the formation of developmental relationships. These relationships are built through offering enrichment activities, academic support, mentoring, mental health and life skills support, and capacity building. AmeriCorps volunteers serve an average of 40 hours per week in direct service roles, including as tutors, mentors, outreach workers and community organizers. Members live in intentional co-housing dormitory communities with other members, sharing the responsibilities of cooking and cleaning. Members are encouraged to perform ten percent of their total service hours engaged in service activities outside their primary placement. Through service, members often become active in local clubs, faith community, support groups and our tribal community and learning more about the joys and challenges of the community in which they serve. Due to the geography and logistics in Alaska, applicants must be able to commit to a full-time term year of service. Preference will be given to applicants who are local to Alaska. Leadership Development is an important component of the Sitka AmeriCorps program. Members will go through training with AmeriCorps and at their host site to build leadership skills specific to their site. Responsibilities include self-leadership and group conflict resolution, thinking critically about how to serve your population, and reporting outputs and timesheets as related to member service activities. Transportation will be on foot or bicycle. Sitka is walkable and the housing is centrally located. There is also a free public transportation option.

Member Duties : Sitka AmeriCorps members serve the community of Sitka using a healing centered engagement and culturally responsive program model. This position supports the home-made and locally grown foods program at Pacific High School. There is an opportunity to not only expand upon your current cooking skills but also to increase food security and knowledge of healthy eating for young people. There is a Pacific High School Garden from which you can create recipes. This position's success depends on building a healthy member/student relationship, developing food prep knowledge and skills. This position requires basic knowledge of health, nutrition, and food fields. The ideal candidate will also have strong computer literacy/skills and comfort serving within an alternative school climate. The position also requires applicants to have a strong desire and comfort in working with at risk youth.
