Job o' the Day: Reproductive Justice Internship at The Young Women's Project in DC!
The Young Women’s Project is a dynamic, brave organization that develops leaders, takes on institutions, and builds youth power in DC. YWP is looking for a versatile, scrappy, tenacious intern who is committed to youth empowerment and reproductive justice and is looking to build skills in training, research, and policy analysis.
This position will offer a significant level of leadership and growth and the chance to make a huge difference in the lives of hundreds of teen women, and reshape DC institutions. It’s a great stepping stone to move into a more senior position at YWP.
The Peer Health and Sexuality Education (PHASE) is a teen-adult partnership that works to improve DC teens’ reproductive health by expanding comprehensive sexuality education, ensuring access to community and school based reproductive health care, and engaging teen women and men as peer educators and decision makers on reproductive health issues.
PHASE is guided by two main goals: 1) To expand Comprehensive Sexual Health Education (CSHE) for DC youth and 2) To ensure youth have accessible, high quality reproductive health care services.
The PHASE intern will work with the PHASE Manager, PHASE Coordinator and 18 teen staff trainers to build and support PHASE as described above.
The RJ Intern will be expected to work at least 20 hours a week including Mondays and Wednesday from 3-7pm (which is when our teen staff are in the office) and will run from mid January through mid May.
