Youth Ambassadors
curaJOY invites youth to bring their valuable perspectives into solving their generation’s biggest challenges and work with us to solve issues like racism, bullying, gender dysphoria and learning differences. Youth Ambassadors–curaJOY’s youngest Joymakers–are at the forefront of social impact, education and behavioral health, representing struggling or under-represented youth to level the playing field so that everyone has the emotional strength to go as far as they want to go in life.
Empowering Youth
Youth Ambassadors are high-caliber young people from high school to young professionals with demonstrated drive and communication skills selected to be guided for career development.
Mentorship from the Best
Build your resume and grow real-world skills like UX/UI design, machine learning, custom AI, digital marketing, team collaboration and program design.
Hands-on Learning
Learning is not complete with practice. Through collaborative projects, curaJOY’s Youth Ambassadors participate alongside our team to get exposure to diverse fields.
Shape the Future
Discover, create and steer the way technology and new research are used in healthcare and education.
Everything looks easy on Youtube and Pinterest (or vicariously, in general), but watching and learning about something is hugely different from doing. Having seasoned and dedicated coaches who can help guide you through best practices unleashes your maximum potential. That’s why curaJOY offers 🌟invaluable🌟 opportunities for high school and college students to gain hands-on experience and enhance their academic education 💻. Joining curaJOY bridges the gap between academia and the professional world, comprehend how concepts and theories translate into real work settings🏭🚀–It helps set you apart!
You’ll earn community service hours, and recommendation letters and receive premium software like Grammarly Premium, Canva Pro, Pixton comic maker, Adobe, Github and much more.
