The Summer Youth Program Educator is a seasonal member of BOLT’s program team, responsible for delivering powerful, consistent programming to high school youth during our summer leadership programs. You’ll serve as a coach, mentor, facilitator, and connector—ensuring youth feel seen, supported, and challenged. You’ll help bring our curriculum to life during an intensive summer program that builds confidence, leadership, and community action skills for Philadelphia youth.

This is a seasonal employee role running June – August 2026 , with structured hours each week.

  • Compensation : $25 / hour

What We're Looking For

  • Excellent Facilitator : You know how to hold space so every youth voice is heard and the group leaves energized. You coach by listening, questioning, and drawing out others—not by dominating airtime.
  • Observant + Grounded in Philly : You notice group dynamics and know how to keep a space safe, respectful, and real. You also understand the lived realities of Philadelphia youth—the neighborhoods, schools, and systems that shape their lives—and can make programming relevant to their context.
  • Impact-Oriented : You measure success by growth and change, not optics. You want your work to tangibly improve lives and communities.
  • Strong Leadership Skills : You lead with humility and presence. You coach youth and peers alike to grow in confidence, skill, and self-awareness.
  • Takes Initiative : You bring ideas forward, act on them, and follow through. You’re energized by figuring things out and improving how we serve youth.
