York — seeks an enthusiastic, dedicated, and mission-aligned College Leadership Coordinator.

Our mission is to ensure that our participants are provided with the resources and guidance needed to be

successful in college and beyond. The main components of our College Success support include student

outreach, academic support and guidance, financial aid advisement, college transfer assistance, summer

and winter internship opportunities, and community-building efforts within our program.
