Summary
Guide the Student Government Association, deliver leadership and life skills training, and oversee student union operations while mentoring young adults.
Build Leaders. Shape Voices. Change Futures.
Every student deserves a voice — and someone who helps them learn how to use it. As our SGA / Life Skills Specialist, you'll guide the Student Government Association, lead leadership and life skills training, and help young adults discover the confidence, accountability, and real-world skills that carry them far beyond our campus.
This is a role for a natural facilitator and mentor: someone who lights up a room, believes in student potential, and knows that the lessons learned in a student council meeting can last a lifetime.
