ABOUT SAN FRANCISCO YOUTHWORKS (SFYW)

San Francisco Youth Works (SFYW) is a unique high school internship program that includes both a school-year and summer strategy and is designed to develop youth job readiness and build awareness of careers in public service. Youth participants are placed in paid internships under the supervision of a career mentor from one of over 30 San Francisco city government departments such as the Public Utilities Commission, the Public Library, and the SF International Airport.

This work experience opportunity is supplemented by a variety of job readiness and career exploration activities to support youth development. For more information about SFYW, go to https://(Use the "Apply for this Job" box below). .

Under the supervision of the SFYW Associate Director, the Employment Coordinator (EC) is one of five team members that manage a school-year and summer cohort of youth and their career mentors. The EC is responsible for overseeing and delivering the program experience to their cohort from start to finish and will offer ongoing support to both interns and mentors. Additionally, the EC will participate in program planning and serve as the lead person of at least one core program activity, which may include but will not be limited to intern recruitment, youth leadership, mentor training, communications, and curriculum development.
