Looking for ecological education counselors for an international social justice summer program in Rhinebeck
Please share in your networks!
Louis August Jonas Foundation (LAJF) is looking for enthusiastic and ecologically minded individuals to develop and execute holistic ecological education for its international social justice program, Camp Rising Sun, this summer. Existing knowledge and skills on ecological gardening (such as permaculture or agroecology) and systems thinking are highly desirable.
Our summer program takes place between June 11th and August 26th. We offer a competitive pay within the industry, ranging from $331 to $420/week based on experience. Apply here: echej or elaine.
Your responsibilities could potentially include but not be limited to:
-
Implementing and developing our sustainability plan on the ground
-
Being in charge of maintaining and expanding a small food garden and a garden compost
-
Coordinating a sustainability teamwork done daily by campers
-
Ensuring ecological education is implemented in all program areas, including kitchen, art education and outdoor projects
-
Supporting curriculum team in implementing entire camp programs on ecological crises, regeneration, and systems thinking. We already have materials from previous years but your additional input would be valuable
We are additionally looking for people interested in nature education to execute wilderness trips this summer. The Nature team’s responsibilities include:
-
Work to ensure the presence of outdoor and nature education throughout our program.
-
Organizing a team of 2-3 counselors to facilitate the camping or nature trip.
-
Coordinating instructions to prepare campers for hikes and environmentally sustainable practices, such as how to effectively select equipment and pack for trips, set up and manage a campsite, build a fire, conduct wilderness first aid, handle emergency situations, leave no trace principles, and safety procedures.
-
Guiding exploration of the campgrounds, such as trails, and encouraging learning through the camp’s natural environment.
-
Organizing the logistics of camping trips, such as applying for permits, revising off-site emergency protocols, and determining packing rations.
-
Purchasing and managing equipment and supplies within the budget.
-
Managing other supporting staff while on trips.
-
Organizing our reflective overnight vigil experience in the final week of the program.
-
Hiking and camping experience is required for this position. A background in youth outdoor education is strongly preferred.
Who are we looking for?
We are building a staff team of people passionate about education and dedicated to our mission of inspiring growth and transformation in young change makers from around the world. We look for hard working and curious relationship builders who are committed to equity, inclusion, diversity and justice across gender, race, sexual orientation, and ability. We hope to build a team of people who think structurally and creatively and can take responsibility for co-creating our emergent environment centering community, regeneration, imagination and care.
Our staff team is responsible for implementing our mission at every level of our program. As a staff member, you will be responsible for guiding campers through thoughtful questioning, reflection, and decision-making as campers take on leadership responsibilities which affect themselves and the greater community. We aim to provide the greatest growth opportunities and support for our campers, which means hiring the most committed and passionate staff possible. Operating in a summer camp setting, we are at heart an international leadership program with an intentional curriculum and mission which drives all of our programming. A background in education and/or previous experience in teenage youth programs is appreciated but not required.
Committed to diversity
Camp Rising Sun considers all applicants holistically and is committed to the goal of building a staff that is diverse in lived, professional and academic experiences. We are constantly seeking to improve the diversity of our staff to better reflect the diverse lived experiences of our campers. We strongly encourage applications from historically underrepresented groups.
Staff responsibilities
While most staff members specialize in a program area, all staff are first and foremost general counselors. Please see more details about the specific responsibilities of each program area in the section below.
Primary responsibilities, regardless of program area, include:
-
Participating in all scheduled activities while on-duty. The daily program typically starts at 8:30 AM and ends at 10:30 PM (staff have 3 hours off a day).
-
Supervising campers overnight on a rotating basis (you will sleep in a staff-only lean-to)
-
Prioritizing the positive experience of campers by monitoring the physical and emotional well-being of campers, upholding health & safety procedures, acting professionally, and modeling constructive behavior.
-
Assisting in large-scale and community-wide projects, instructions, or activities.
-
Participating in regular meetings with the staff team.
-
Participating in program evaluation and self-evaluation.
-
Facilitating multiple instructions (90 minute workshops) over the course of the summer.
-
Maintaining a substance-free campus.
-
We hope you will join us to build the 2023 CRS experience.
Position benefits
-
Competitive pay within the industry (ranging from $331 to $420/week based on experience)
-
Full room and board for the duration of your contract (mostly in dormitory rooms shared with other staff members, occasionally in outdoor platform tents or lean-tos shared only with staff members).
-
A 10-day immersive professional staff training including a CPR and First Aid certification (you will get paid for staff training)
-
Workers’ compensation.
-
Travel stipend for out-of-state staff
-
1 day off a week and a minimum of 3 hours off per day.
-
We cover visa and health insurance costs for international staff.
-

Our summer staff gain new colleagues and friends as they become part of our international network of educators and alumni that spans 90+ years. Our network includes the following benefits:
-
Access to a graduate school and study abroad scholarship through World Learning, and the George E. Jonas university scholarship.
-
Additional virtual program work opportunities after successfully completing a summer season.
-
For staff, our summer program begins on June 11th and ends on August 26th.

See this award winning film on Thursday March 23, 6:30pm
‘Reflection, A Walk With Water’
Followed by a Talk with Filmmaker Emmett Brennan
Attend In Person OR From Home With Online Link ~ Read more details below this image:
Reckoning with the reality of a changing climate, filmmaker Emmett Brennan walks the length of the Los Angeles aqueduct in search of a vision for humanity worth living for—where he encounters ecological iconoclasts, indigenous voices, and permaculture designers who are challenging the status quo on how we use Earth’s most precious resource. The film delves into a profound and far reaching look at our relationship with water and offers a vision for how to radically redesign our lives around it.
About Emmett:
Emmett is an artist and story teller who uses film as a way to orient humanity towards care, curiosity, and repair. Both poetic and practical, his work gives momentum to the cautiously hopeful dreams in our hearts and offers deep insight into the interdependent relationship we share with the whole of life. He is most well known for producing ‘Inhabit: A Permaculture Perspective’ and directing ‘Reflection: a walk with water,’ which premiered at Tribeca and won an Audience Favorite award at Mill Valley.

Hello everyone, happy to see this thread active! I will be looking into some of those resources myself from Melody and Patty. I’m located in Beacon, NY (Hudson Valley) and newly learning about permaculture. I’m currently reading Gaia’s Garden and have a bunch of seeds, hoping to plan out a better garden and other tools using permaculture design this year. I’d be interested in Zoom calls, too.

Hi, Melody. Love your enthusiasm! And I highly recommend anything that Frank’s organization is doing!
I host a Meetup Group in Rochester (below my signature). We’ve been inactive of late as I’ve been at capacity with the sum total of life. I’d be excited to work together and get some Zooming started until the weather lets us gather outdoors a little more comfortably.
You might also consider joining Permaculture Association of the Northeast (of which I am the Board Treasurer). We have a searchable member directory, which is handy for networking. We have some committee tasks that we’ll be outreaching for.
And you likely know you have some permaculture folks in Buffalo, too!

Hello everyone, happy to see this thread active! I will be looking into some of those resources myself from Melody and Patty. I’m located in Beacon, NY (Hudson Valley) and newly learning about permaculture. I’m currently reading Gaia’s Garden and have a bunch of seeds, hoping to plan out a better garden and other tools using permaculture design this year. I’d be interested in Zoom calls, too.

Hi, Melody. Love your enthusiasm! And I highly recommend anything that Frank’s organization is doing!
I host a Meetup Group in Rochester (below my signature). We’ve been inactive of late as I’ve been at capacity with the sum total of life. I’d be excited to work together and get some Zooming started until the weather lets us gather outdoors a little more comfortably.
You might also consider joining Permaculture Association of the Northeast (of which I am the Board Treasurer). We have a searchable member directory, which is handy for networking. We have some committee tasks that we’ll be outreaching for.
And you likely know you have some permaculture folks in Buffalo, too!
Congratulations on taking your PDC and reaching out to make some stuff happen!
Warmly,
patty love, MALS, PDC

Being a permaculture weirdo can be lonely.

Hi Melody, glad you found the group. Yeah, we have not done a good job as moderators keeping the group active. Zoom calls can be good, I would be down for one. I’m out of Syracuse with www.alchemicalnursery.org
Where and what resources have you used for learning so far?
Sincerely ~ Frank

Hello, I’ve just discovered this group. I see that it has been inactive for almost a year. I would love to get things going again. I’m learning about permaculture and feeling a need to connect with other permaculturists in the community. I live in Amherst NY (near Buffalo NY). I know it’s difficult to connect with each other given the Covid situation, but even just talking on zoom or something would be a great start. Who’s interested?
