AYEA (Alaska Youth for Environmental Action) Program Manager

The Alaska Center Education Fund is seeking a creative, caring and organized individual to serve as our Alaska Youth for Environmental Action (AYEA) Program Manager. The Program Manager will work closely with The Alaska Center Education Fund staff to lead the inspiring AYEA program, supporting multicultural and intersectional youth from across the state as they grow into compassionate community advocates and leaders. AYEA has engaged thousands of youth since 1998. AYEA is at a  critical time of development and needs a refresh to build a sustainable program, a program that can be supported financially and resourced appropriately that keeps to the heart of AYEA to date.  For the first year in this program, feedback will need to be gathered from youth, communities, funders and Alaska Center staff to develop a program.  This means the first step of this role is to work with staff to discuss what must go and what must stay for the short-term. The position description below describes the past role of the manager to give a sense of where this position is going. The Manager will help facilitate our vision of a statewide movement of diverse young Alaskans who have the skills, connections, and inspiration to effectively advocate for our communities and environment. This position will coordinate transformative training, community events, and youth-led initiatives to build the advocacy, organizing, and leadership skills of young Alaskans. This position has opportunities for professional growth.

This is a full-time position located in Anchorage, Alaska.
