Urban Nature Overnights (UNO) Assistant Coordinator

Would you like to share your passion for the outdoors with young people in your community? Join Metro as our Urban Nature Overnights (UNO) Assistant Coordinator and spend the spring and summer exploring some of the region’s most beautiful natural areas with kids who might otherwise not have the opportunity to camp out.

As the UNO Assistant Coordinator, you will play a key role in organizing and delivering this innovative outdoor recreation and youth development program for groups of historically underrepresented youth ages 8-11 at overnight camping trips in local parks, including Oxbow Regional Park, Eagle Creek in the Columbia River Gorge, and Wildwood Recreation Area. You will lead the planning and training for teen counselors, lead pre-overnight trainings for participants at community centers, and assist with all UNO summer program planning, record keeping and evaluation. The UNO Assistant Coordinator oversees the work of teen counselors while they lead activities during outreaches and overnights, and acts as a program lead on UNO overnights.
