Who We Are
We’re HealthCorps – a national, non-profit organization committed to improving lives by addressing health challenges in communities through programming that includes innovative and engaging experiences for teens in education, leadership, and service learning. We empower teens by encouraging them to become agents within their families, schools, and neighborhoods. Our program is grounded in the understanding that limited access to health education can lead to a lifetime of social, emotional, and physical challenges.

Where You Fit In
We’re looking for a creative, friendly, self-starter who will implement an innovative wellness club, Teens Make Health Happen in high schools in Palm Beach County, Florida. The TMHH Club empowers teens to make healthier choices for themselves and their families. You will serve as a catalyst for sustainable change, promoting improved health and wellness, and creating leadership opportunities for teens at your assigned sites.
As a TMHH Mentor, you will serve as a near-peer mentor to high school students throughout the academic year. You will gain hands on experience leading our health and wellness club, Teens Make Health Happen, in area schools and by supporting teens in planning and leading wellness programming such as lunchtime demonstrations, step challenges and community improvement projects.
What You’ll Do
Responsibilities:
· Develop Strong Relationships. You will collaborate with teen wellness leaders and site partners to ensure effective delivery of HealthCorps’ programming across school sites. You will collaborate with your Regional Program Manager and other area mentors, as well as participate in ongoing professional development and leadership opportunities provided by the organization at no expense.
· Assess Your Schools’ Needs and Progress. Research the health challenges facing the schools you serve, then measure your impact through needs assessments, reporting, and ongoing tracking throughout your mentorship.
· Manage Teens Make Health Happen Clubs. You will plan and implement the successful delivery of the HealthCorps’ program, Teens Make Health Happen, committing to 8+ hours a week throughout the course of the academic year. Your commitment to this program will require you to be at your assigned school sites/campuses for approximately 2 hours each week for instructional purposes. We prioritize full year placements, however we do have a few opportunities for single semester commitments, as well as 1 or more club site placements, if you are looking for a slightly different commitment level.
· Share and Make Aware. You will host a Health Promoting Event at each of your school sites and support them with regional events. You will support and contribute to HealthCorps’ social media platforms (Instagram, TikTok, etc.) by sharing program highlights, stories of impact, and photos that will shine a bright light on your students.
· Commit to the HealthCorps Mission. You will prioritize health and wellness daily and work to ensure that relevant, local health resources are accessible for all students and staff at your respective sites. Your spark to serve will leave a lasting, positive impact on your community.
