  • Devises behavior management plans to support success in YMCA programs.
  • Carries out leadership responsibilities to effectively train and coach staff on managing the behavior of youth participants.

Our Youth Development team members are enthusiastic about their work because they have discovered the joys of helping kids learn, stay physically active, and build positive self-esteem and sense of self-worth. Plus, they also enjoy:

  • A fun and engaging work environment where friendships are made
  • Flexible schedules
  • Room to grow
  • Free Y membership at all YMCA of Lincoln locations for qualified staff
  • Future employers respect the Y - build your resume
