We are seeking ministry-minded individuals to join our After School team.

We are looking for someone devoted to excellence, wholeheartedness, and developing kids to reach their full potential. This is an opportunity to have an eternal impact and be a role model to kids in your community.
Mentoring Alliance After School hires teachers, youth workers, teen workers, college students, mentors, and more to serve and develop kids in our programs. As a Christian ministry, we serve kids and students in our community by offering awesome after-school care and activities. Our mission is to mobilize godly people into the lives of kids and families, providing tangible help and eternal hope.
