    Faculty - PT Position

    Newark, NJ

    Who We Are

    Sadie Nash Leadership Project (SNLP) provides award-winning experiential social justice education and leadership development programs to nearly 700 young women and gender-expansive youth of color in New York City and Newark, NJ each year. Operating with love and rigor, we use the tools of popular education to build critical consciousness, community, and college readiness. Our programs include a nationally recognized six-week summer institute, in-school and after-school classes, college access and persistence support, and an advanced-level fellowship to design and implement an original social justice project. We strengthen, empower, and equip our participants to lead lives in committed pursuit of joy and liberation for self and community.

    Faculty Position

    SNLP is seeking experienced and enthusiastic faculty to facilitate our curriculum at high schools, middle schools, and community organizations throughout Newark, NJ. Our premiere "Sisterhood/Siblinghood Academy" curriculum is a social justice course that covers topics such as identity, power/privilege, community, feminism/womanism, and leadership. Our skilled faculty members use a popular education approach to create meaningful and worthwhile experiences for Nashers, the young women and gender expansive youth who participate in our programming.

    Faculty carry responsibilities in facilitation, field trip/final celebration planning, and general support for all participants in the class made up of 10 - 20 youth. This includes adapting curriculum, developing positive relationships with participants and managing programming logistics (i.e. tracking attendance/progress). Faculty also serve as a liaison between SNLP and the teaching site.

    • Demonstrates leadership and achievement in academic, professional, or extracurricular settings

    • Is punctual, reliable, and organized
    • Can commit to 2-3 teaching sites

    Compensation:

    Faculty are paid an hourly wage of $40/hour for facilitation and $20/hour for administrative work.

    Administrative work consists of:

    • 1 hour - Curriculum planning (per session taught)
    • 1 hour - Attendance/documentation management (per session taught)
