Get involved

Want to get involved in the community and support the WPJC?!  Here are a few ways you can help us:

• We are currently looking for a Communications & Outreach Intern to start as soon as possible! Know someone who's interested in social justice and could use an internship to boost their resume or cover volunteer hours? Are you that person? Send us an email to set up a time to chat!

 

• We are also searching for a Program Coordinator for Alternatives to Military Service! Want to gain leadership skills, work in an intergenerational team and support our local youth in finding opportunities outside of the military. Reach out to us and learn how to get involved!
