Philadelphia Freedom Schools Servant Leader Intern Application

 

 

 

Servant Leader Intern Job Description

Philadelphia Freedom Schools™ summer programs are staffed by young-adults who serve as positive role models and mentors. Children learn by example the values of honesty and hard work, and the importance of investing in their community. The PFS program trains college-age young people to serve as Servant Leader Interns (SLI) who help to provide transformational summer experiences for youth all over the city of Philadelphia.

SLIs are trained early each summer at the Philadelphia Freedom Schools Servant Leadership Training in areas of child development, academic lesson planning, team teaching and facilitation, team building strategies, and positive conflict resolution. This inspirational training also trains college interns in social activism skills, helping them become knowledgeable and confident advocates for children and families.      

After training and site placement, Servant Leader Interns are responsible for delivery of the PFS Pathways Curriculum™ to students between grades K-8th   as well as serving as mentors to the two high school Junior Servant Leaders™ assigned to their classrooms. PFS classrooms benefit from a 3:10 student to instructor ratio. The SLIs are responsible for the day-to-day care and nurturing of the children, serving as facilitators in the classroom and as leaders of community outreach activities.

Think Tank Weekly Book Chapters

  • Matthew Countryman : Up South-Civil Rights and Black Power in Philadelphia
    Until recently, most scholarship on the civil rights movement has viewed Black Power as largely an external ideological influence disrupting the sense of common purpose and goals within the civil rights movement. This paper draws on Dr. Countryman's recently-published history of the civil rights and Black Power movements in Philadelphia as well as other new scholarship on African-American social movements in the urban North to examine Black Power's emergence as an organic product of the experience of activists within the primarily integrationist and nonviolent post-war civil rights movement. Drawing on Michael Dawson's taxonomy of black political thought, he argues that Black Power activists turned to the black nationalist critique of racism's constitutive role in American society as a direct result of their experience of the limitations of the liberal program for redressing racial inequality in the U.S. He then traces the development of Black Power movement strategy and the tension between demands for community control over public institutions in the black community and calls for the creation of private black-only institutions. He concludes the paper with a brief examination of the difficulties faced by Black Power activists as they sought to sustain movement activism into the 1970s.
