As an after school counselor, your duties are to prepare and supervise activities in an afterschool program, such as at an elementary school, community center, or at a YMCA. Your responsibilities may be to assist children with their homework, organize crafting or athletic activities, and make sure everyone gets snacks during the program. In addition to planning and overseeing activities, you are also responsible for observing the health and wellness of all children in your program, maintaining relationships with parents, and providing help to program directors or other counselors.
