Mtcc Missoula Parks & Rec-Summer Academic Enrichment

MTCC Missoula Parks & Rec-Summer Academic Enrichment

Missoula Parks and Recreation enhances the quality of life in the City of Missoula by promoting health and wellness; stimulating, supporting and encouraging community and economic development; protecting the environment; educating residents; and ensuring that all people feel safe, welcome, and valued in Parks and Recreation facilities and programs. The goal of this project is to support Parks & Recreation's new partnership with the Missoula County Public School district to support academic summer enrichment programming to help students advance to the next grade level with all the necessary skills and knowledge.

Montana Campus Compact (MTCC) serves as the intermediary for this project. MTCC is a CEO-led coalition of colleges and universities that support civic engagement, service learning, and volunteerism across the state. Every year we place cohorts of full-time, part-time, and summer AmeriCorps members with schools, colleges, nonprofits, and government agencies in Montana.

The AmeriCorps projects we facilitate increase educational equity, break down barriers between higher education and community organizations, and address the root causes of poverty in communities across the state. Further help on this page can be found by clicking here.

Member Duties : AmeriCorps members with Missoula Parks and Recreation will be responsible for planning activities that relate to academic material learned that day with the goal of imparting parallel academic content in active, interactive, and activity-based ways. This position is ideal for students studying education, community development, social work, or parks/tourism/rec management as this partnership reflects an interdisciplinary approach to child education and welfare over the summer months.Learn more by visiting https://mtcompact.org/available-positions/
