At Urban Adamah, we host a variety of youth programming at the farm throughout the year. We are looking for experienced and talented educators to create loving, inspiring, and transformative experiences for young people.

We have two youth programming opportunities that require a care coordinator as Urban Adamah prides itself on building connection and community using a variety of methods and points-of-access.

Priority will be given to care coordinators who are interested in engaging with both of our youth education programs.

As an All Year Care Coordinator, you will support students’ needs in Grades K-5 approximately every-other Sunday. You will collaborate and work alongside Urban Adamah Educators to support students with a variety of needs, in both a group-setting, as well as offering individualized support and 1:1 opportunities for students. You will support Educators in leading students through inquiry and study of Jewish tradition and ritual and its intersection with sustainable agriculture and caring for the earth.

YOUTH RETREATS – SCHOOLS & GROUPS MULTI-DAY PROGRAM
Variable Times & Dates

As a Youth Retreats Educator & Care Coordinator, you will facilitate and deliver pre-created programming for youth groups who stay overnight at Urban Adamah. You will have the opportunity to serve as a tour guide on the farm, provide structured “down-time” and re-regulation programming for students, and support students in Grades 4-12 to make connections between caring for one’s body and caring for the earth. In addition, you will be a part of a virtual meeting prior to the start of the retreat with the group’s leaders to discuss any specific student needs, as well as tools and strategies the group leaders use to support the student(s).
