Beyond Jobs 2

Mission: St. Louis empowers people to transform their lives, families and neighborhoods. The Job & Leadership Training program works with young men from at-risk communities to teach job training and leadership skills. The program includes weekly classes, personal mentorship and an internship at a local business. Approximately 38% of the students do not have a GED/HiSET or high school diploma. The lack of education is keeping them from job opportunities and advancement in the workplace. To bridge the gap, we will begin offering HiSET prep classes and will pay for any JLT student to take the HiSET exams.

What we're looking for:

  • Current or retired teachers, educators or tutors
  • Students studying education or related fields
  • Comfortable teaching a set curriculum with a small group of students. All materials and extra study resources will be provided.
  • Able to commit to one night per week (Tues or Thurs, 6-9pm) for at least 12 weeks starting in June

Mission Statement

Mission: St. Louis' mission is to empower people to transform their lives, families and neighborhoods. We are committed to transforming the city of St. Louis by connecting individuals/groups to communities in need through education, empowerment, and economic development.

Description

Education

Mission: St. Louis believes education is the primary imperative in the empowerment and development of both individuals and communities. Through education, we can work along side individuals to inspire and develop indigenous leadership.

Empowerment

Mission: St. Louis seeks to empower people to grow and develop in all aspects of their lives. Empowerment means engaging people as equals, not as dependents of charity. To do this, we enter into dynamic interpersonal relationships based on mutual respect, trust, integrity, grace and compassion. Through empowerment, we are able to work together in achieving personal and community pride based on a regenerated sense of worth.

Development

Mission: St. Louis desires to develop people and communities holistically through economic and spiritual development. Lasting, authentic change only happens from the inside out. This means that we must work to bring about long-term change in both economic and spiritual spheres. We believe this can only come from building trust through authentic relationships.
