Spend Your Summer Making a Difference with the IRC!

Join the Newcomer Youth Summer Academy (NYSA) and help empower newly arrived refugee youth as they prepare for success in their new schools and communities. This dynamic six-week program welcomes up to 130 students, ages 5-21, from over 20 countries, offering a rich curriculum that includes academics, creative arts, physical education, and social-emotional learning.

We’re looking for passionate educators to fill a variety of teaching roles, with both full-time and part-time opportunities available. NYSA is held in a centrally located school in New York City, and all staff must be available to work in person for the full duration of the program.
