Healthy Aging Intern

UWGLV AmeriCorps
Allentown, PA
The Healthy Aging Intern will play an important role in supporting our age-friendly initiatives and community health efforts. This position will assist with project coordination, proofreading and editing the Healthy Aging Resource Guide, and gathering research and data to strengthen our programs and planning. The intern will have the opportunity to contribute to meaningful projects that promote quality of life for older adults while building professional skills in project management, community health, and communications. This internship will require in-person activities at our Allentown, PA office. It is only appropriate for an intern who is within a reasonable commute of the Greater Lehigh Valley area. This internship requires a commitment of approximately 10 hours per week.

Responsibilities

General Internship Information
  • Internships at UWGLV are available in most of our business areas year-round. We are highly flexible with start and end dates for internships.
  • Open to individuals of any age over 14, in a formal educational program or not, who demonstrate they are developing new professional skills and would benefit from the opportunity to work and learn in our organization.
  • Will work on projects that go beyond that which the organization expected to accomplish with regular employees and which are not core to the achievement of the organization's mission.
  • An intern is expected to get as much from the work experience at UWGLV as UWGLV gets from the intern. The supervisor of an intern anticipates a "break-even" exchange of time invested in mentoring the intern versus work product contributed to the organization.
  • It is not the purpose or intention of this program to allow prospective employees to "work for free" to demonstrate their skill set or prove their suitability for employment.
  • May serve as an intern for no more than 1 year or no more than 950 hours.

Requirements
At least 18 years old
Have a HS diploma or G.E.D.
Able to report in person for work in Lehigh, Northampton or Carbon counties.
Able to secure clearances to work with vulnerable populations (Act 153).
