Northern Yearly Meeting is searching for someone with a leading to be our Middle School Coordinator.
The Coordinator will:
a) Lead programming for middle school youth in NYM. In normal years, this consisted of two in-person retreats as well as leading the middle school program at Annual Session. During the past year, this has pivoted to virtual programming. Flexibility will be critical as we determine how we can move ahead going forward.
