Dates: June 16 - Aug. 22, 2025​

​

Days: M/T/Th/F in-person each week 

​

Times: 9:00 am - 1:00 pm 

​

Locations:​ To be determined 

(Note: Because we will be exploring different neighborhoods in Milwaukee, each week, and often each day, will require interns to be dropped off and picked up at different locations.  Therefore, a reliable source of transportation is a pre-requisite of this internship.)

 

Topics & Experiences:

  • Discover Milwaukee's history, both positive and challenging

  • Explore the city through its water, parks, culture, food, and more

  • Engage in conversations with residents and business owners

  • Recognize community assets and deficits throughout the city

  • Create your own community-based asset map of the city

  • Learn how to advocate for changes you and your family want to see

IMPORANT: Because of this internship will take Teens all over the city, Teens will need reliable transportation to and from a central meeting spot each week, whether rides from family members or rides on public transportation (we provide bus passes). 

 

TGG will provide school bus transportation for field trips from the central meeting spot to other parts of the city.

It is important for me as a teen to explore the city because I can
connect with my community more and help myself figure out what
opportunities and careers I would like to choose.  I feel as though if
teens explore their own city they can gain independence, confidence,
socialization skills, and overall fun!
