ARE YOU LOOKING FOR AN EXPERIENCE THAT CONTRIBUTES TO THE WELL-BEING OF FAMILIES IN OUR COMMUNITY? Consider an internship with ATD FOURTH WORLD!
WHAT IS ATD FOURTH WORLD AND WHAT DO WE DO?
ATD Fourth World is an international non-profit organization that builds relationships, programs and advocacy work with families who experience poverty and hardship. Our main program in New Mexico and Arizona is called Story Garden and is a space for relationship-building, creativity and learning with families. It is a free program, open to the public. Story Garden takes place weekly at the Gallup flea market and in Gamerco, and is expanding to other areas of the region. At Story Garden, families can enjoy a variety of learning and artistic materials prepared by our team of facilitators. Our team learns so much every week about the strengths and hopes that families carry, and we adapt our programs to build on those hopes.
