Summer Program Lead Facilitator – Media & Content Creation
About The Position
The Girl Scout mission is to build girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place. Behind every Girl Scout and volunteer is a team of local staff ready to help them earn that next badge, embark on a camping adventure, or organize an impactful service project. We are Girl Scouts of Northern New Jersey (GSNNJ) serving girls in grades K-12 in Bergen, Morris, Passaic, Sussex and northern Warren counties. We bring the Girl Scout Leadership Experience to 19,000 girls and 10,200 adult members. GSNNJ is excited for the upcoming opening of its’ very own DreamLab. The DreamLab is designed to become a bold, imaginative hub for sisterhood — a space where ideas ignite, friendships flourish, and limitless possibilities come to life. This dynamic new experience center will offer Girl Scouts a whole new and meaningful way to explore our four pillars — STEM, Life Skills, Entrepreneurship, and Outdoors. DreamLab will provide an innovative, hands-on learning environment where girls explore STEM, creativity, and entrepreneurship through real-world experiences. Designed as a dynamic makerspace and discovery hub, DreamLab offers programs including summer camps, workshops, field trips, and badge-based learning experiences. DreamLab Summer Programs will run from July 6 through August 21 and are structured as a series of themed, week-long studio experiences for girls in grades K–12 . Each week, participants dive into a specific focus area while building skills, friendships, and confidence through hands-on, project-based learning. We are seeking a Lead Summer Program Facilitator with experience or interest in digital media, storytelling, or content creation to support DreamLab programs and lead media-focused studios during key weeks.
