Project SOS Leadership Internship

When: 13 June 2011 – 1 July 2011

Where: University of North Florida

Project S.O.S., Inc. was founded in 1993, with a mission to strengthen families by empowering parents, and educating youth to make healthy life choices. The organization provides a positive youth development program, focused on building self-esteem, healthy relationships, and improving decision-making skills.

For the first time ever, Project S.O.S, Inc. is holding a Leadership Internship to build up our future leaders than to mentor 20 top notch students during an intense 3 week internship.
The first week of camp will be centered on getting our attendees creative juices flowing. The attendees will be challenged to create a short skit that best exemplifies the positive message Project SOS endeavors to pour into middle and high schoolers on the first coast.
The second week will be spent in revamping the current Project SOS classroom and mentoring club presentation. The students will do research on the latest statistics involving bullying, drugs, alcohol, teen sex, suicide, self-abuse and violence. They will give our classroom instructors ideas on how to make our program even more relevant to middle and high school students.
The third week will be spent preparing for a youth rally that will take place at Murray Hill Theater the evening of June 30th. This rally will spread our positive message to over 500 kids in a full-filled exciting atmosphere.
The last day of the camp; our 20 graduates will receive some special day of fun at Adventure Landing to reward them for a job well done.

Applications will need to be returned to Project SOS by close of business on the 29th of April to be eligible for consideration!
