This opportunity is offered in the spirit of building community, broadening circles, and fostering intergenerational relations. It will provide youth who are ERUUF members a chance to share their love of UUism with the younger generation and an experience that is truly emblematic of UU values: covenantal relationships rooted in community and mutual respect. Unlike other internships that offer a chance to learn work skills, this internship offers youth a chance to practice bringing their UU values into a work environment. Priority will be given to applicants who have completed Coming of Age at ERUUF or another UU congregation.

With this internship you will:

Build leadership skills
Deepen knowledge of UU principles and how they can impact life and community
Build relationships with other adults at ERUUF (parents and teachers)
Create and deepen relationships with UU children
Add valuable experience and skills to your resume
