Alpine Achievers Initiative (AAI) inspires, connects, and nurtures youth, families, and communities in south-central Colorado. AmeriCorps members support local youth, from pre-k to highschool, through academic interventions and extracurricular programming as Student Engagement Specialists with AAI. During the 23/24 service term, members will be placed with host sites across seven counties throughout the San Luis and Arkansas River Valleys.
In addition to mentoring youth, we provide service members with opportunities for backpacking, skiing, mountain biking and other awesome outdoor recreational activities. This is a great position for recent graduates and those hoping to gain more experience in the social service and educational field without a multi-year commitment. Simultaneously, you can earn an education award to pay off past student loans or attribute to future schooling.
Retreats, trainings (such as Restorative Practices, Safe Zone Training, Mental Health First Aid, Mandatory Reporter Training, Behavior Management, Trauma-Informed Care, Wilderness First Aid), outdoor adventures (Camping Trips, Backpacking Trips, Winter Snowshoe Trips, Rock Climbing Trips, River Trips), and access to our gear library (tents, sleeping bags/pads, stoves, life jackets, camping chairs, snow shoes). As an AmeriCorps service member, you can also earn an education award to pay off past student loans or to use toward future loans.
