Young Life shall only employ individuals or enlist volunteer leaders who: (a) profess a belief in Jesus Christ as their personal Savior and Lord; and (b) subscribe to the statements and policies required of all Young Life staff, including the Young Life Statement of Faith. Therefore, employees and volunteers of Young Life, during working and nonworking hours, shall: (i) be ready, willing and able to fulfill such ministry functions as may be required by the organization; (ii) refrain from conduct and statements that detract from the biblical standards taught and supported by Young Life, and (iii) abide by all policies and practices of Young Life including, without limitation, those related to religious belief or ministry activities.

Interns play a vital role in Young Life's camping ministry. Our interns are committed to Christ, first and foremost. They also have the ability to lead others, serve with excellence, and have a desire to be challenged and grow in their relationship with Christ. Interns will strive together to serve Christ, kids, and each other. They will also have the opportunity to grow as leaders in ministry, develop Christ-like relationships, and enjoy the fun and beauty of camp.

Young Life Camping offers two types of summer-only paid internships from which to choose:

1. at an outreach camp,
2. at an adventure/discipleship camp

Summer Outreach Intern

Young Life's outreach camps support volunteer leaders as they pursue Young Life's mission of "introducing adolescents to Jesus Christ and helping them to grow in their faith." Summer interns at YL outreach camps arrive in late spring and depart the last day of the summer camping season. Please visit camp websites to learn more. Information such as specific roles, dates, and other local details may be found under their "Intern" tab.

Summer Adventure

Young Life's adventure/discipleship camps specialize in the second half of our mission statement, helping adolescents to grow in their faith. These camping experiences are designed to support a deeper journey for smaller groups of leaders and their friends. Summer interns at adventure/discipleship camps also arrive in late spring and depart at the end of summer. Roles may include supporting base camp operations, serving as guides for adventure experiences, and facilitating space and time for campers and leaders to consider what it means to be a disciple of Jesus.

There are five adventure/discipleship camps in North America: Adventures Beyond Malibu, Adventures Pioneer Plunge, Adventures Wild Ridge, Adventures Wilderness Ranch, and Adventures Willow Springs. Please visit camp websites to learn more. Information such as specific roles, dates, if fundraising is required, and other local details may be found there.
