Palm Beach, FL Are you interested in serving your community and empowering the next generation of healthy leaders? HealthCorps and our mission to improve the lives of youth, both mentally and physically, provides you with the opportunity to do just that. Who We Are We’re HealthCorps – a national, non-profit organization committed to improving lives by addressing health challenges in communities through programming that provides innovative and engaging experiences for teens in education, leadership, and service learning. Through our Teens Make Health Happen program, we empower teens by encouraging them to become change agents within their families, schools, and neighborhoods. Our program is grounded in the understanding that limited access to health education can lead to a lifetime of social, emotional and physical challenges. Where You Fit In We’re looking for a creative, organized, self-starter who will help us achieve development goals and uplift the HealthCorps mission by contributing creative and innovative ideas. You will help develop and implement communication and marketing strategies as part of a dynamic team of regional staff and other college interns. This internship will help you to supplement your current marketing and communication skills and provide a diverse range of experiences in the public health and non-profit fields. The experience you gain through this marketing and communications internship will be broad and helpful in preparing you for other fast-paced work environments.

You may also support content creation for platforms such as LinkedIn and YouTube in collaboration with the national team. Performance Tracking & Reporting: You will help track engagement analytics and assist in monthly reporting to assess the performance and impact of communications efforts. Campaign & Feature Support: You may assist in brainstorming and pitching recurring content ideas such as “Wellbeing Wednesdays” or “student takeovers.” Internal Communications: You will help draft internal communications materials like email announcements, slide decks, or updates for HealthCorps teams as needed. Collaboration & Teamwork: You will collaborate with a team of college mentors who deliver the TMHH health programming to local middle and high school sites in [region], as well as other HealthCorps MarComm Interns in regions across the country. You will also participate in national intern huddles with the HealthCorps marketing team to align on voice, storytelling strategy, and key campaigns. Represent HealthCorps in Palm Beach: You will be an embodiment and extension of our organization and our values, both inside and outside your sites. Your presence -- whether at sites or at an area-wide event -- will be an asset in outreach efforts that connect teens, staff, and community members to HealthCorps resources and materials.
