We are looking for intermediate to fluent Spanish speakers to help us facilitate our curriculum during our Learn & Earn cohort meetings in Dorchester. Learn & Earn is a matched savings program for young adults who are 16 years old and older. Participants engage in a 12-week life skills curriculum discussing essential knowledge needed for a successful transition into adulthood. Silver Lining matches the earnings of youth participants to reward their saving habits and leverage their assets. Young adults have been able to earn and save for college tuition, security deposit and rent for their first apartment, laptops for school, and vocational training programs. Although we currently have limited translation capabilities, we want to make sure that everyone in the class has the same access to financial literacy, and we hope you can help us do that! I have listed the following meeting dates below, if you are at all interested in supporting translation at our cohort meeting on any of these dates, please contact Cayla Nyante-Brown (cayla@silverliningmentoring.org). We will then arrange a quick call with our Spanish speaking coordinator to share more specific details. Cohort Logistics:
Transportation details: MBTA Red Line, Savin Hill Station
Day & Time: Mondays , 6:30 - 8:30 p.m.
Requested Dates of Support: Nov. 4, Nov. 18, Nov. 25, Dec. 2, Dec. 9, Dec.16 Please let us know if you have any questions. We look forward to hearing from you!

We provide long term one-to-one mentoring and life skills development for young people who have been removed from their homes due to abuse or neglect.
