High School Student Facilitators

Welcome to Jimiri! If you’re visiting this site, that means you’re interested in promoting racial justice by building friendships, understanding, and empathy across racial lines. With our Youth Leadership Program, the solutions begin with you!

Every Sunday afternoon (for 6 weeks, beginning April 14, 2024), you and your co-facilitators will meet with your Jimiri Group for two hours. You’ll help them build lasting friendships through common-interest activities and group-building exercises, and hopefully you’ll help inspire them to become future leaders in the cause of racial justice in America.

Our spring 2024 facilitators are unpaid and will work on a volunteer basis. (We plan to bring back our facilitator stipends in future sessions.)

If you’re interested in applying to be a facilitator, please ask your parent or guardian for permission to fill out the form below. We’ll get back to you as soon as we can. Thank you for your interest in Jimiri!
