Youth Mentor Intern

Part-time and unpaid.

LifeSTEP (Life Skills Training and Enhancement Program) is currently accepting applications for the Fall 2023 semester.

The University of Arizona Psychology Department has established a community service agency that provides undergraduate life skills training and mentoring to school-aged youth. The vast majority of these children are from underserved communities in Tucson and are struggling with a variety of emotional and behavior problems.   

As a LifeSTEP intern, you would be meeting with your assigned youth about once a week for about four hours each time. Activities might include going to the movies, getting an ice cream, going bowling or spending time at a park, etc (you would be reimbursed for your expenses including gas). Interns are eligible to earn three units of internship credit.

We are especially in need of male interns due to the large number of older boys in desperate need of a positive role model, but we are also in need of many female, nonbinary and transgender interns as well! 

To apply, complete the application and email it to Julie Feldman at julief@arizona.edu.
