The Power of Play
What Staff Are Saying
"Being a Playworks coach has taught me how to be loyal and dedicated and never give up on anyone or anything. Just seeing the smiles on my students' faces when they see me walking through the halls or during recess lights up my world."

Do you have a passion for play?
Do you have a vision that some day all children will be able to play every day?
Do you want to be part of an extraordinary movement to change the culture of play?
At Playworks, we take play seriously: We believe every child deserves the chance to play. We're looking for enthusiastic people to join our growing organization and help kids seize that chance by bringing play back to a schoolyard in your community.
Whether you work at our headquarters, in a city office, as a member of our training group or on a school playground, as a member of the Playworks team, you can:
- Make a daily difference in the lives of children
- Ensure that all children get the chance to play and participate on the playground
- Develop professional skills and manage your own program
- Work with like-minded individuals who believe in what they do
- Say I LOVE my job! and MEAN it
Many of our first year program coordinators, called "coaches," are also members of the AmeriCorps program, serving their community by serving in schools where they are needed.
