Code Blue Program Intern (New York)

Save to Favorites

City Vision Internships is a Christian one-year, multi-year or summer internship program based on the AmeriCorps model. Interns serve at one of over 40 positions across the USA and Canada. In the past 10 years, we have placed over 500 full-time interns and 68,000+ volunteers in hundreds of Christian ministries.

The primary purpose of the Code Blue Intern is to provide supervision and care to the guests who have an immediate need for shelter when temperatures are below 32 degrees Fahrenheit.
Responsibilities include:

• Ensure policies and procedures are followed
• Complete record keeping, paperwork and properly file documents
• Provide direct care and supervision of guests
• Communicate with the Shelter Manager about operational needs, issues and address any immediate needs that guests have
• Facilitate meals for guests who have not had the opportunity to eat at the kitchen
• Oversee the daily chores done by guests to ensure a clean environment

While Staff will hold guests accountable to follow the Open Door Mission’s Code of Conduct, they also need to meet them at their point of need and do the best they can to not have unrealistic expectations of them.
