Internships

We have developed internship programs in multiple disciplines for undergraduate and graduate students from over a dozen of universities. We have received positive feedback that students have enjoyed their internship experience and have hired more than half  of those interns. As a small agency,  interns placed with us get exposure to all facets of our work - from attending court proceedings, working with family members and parole officers, observing our programs and on-on-one coaching with residents to participating in staff meetings and in resident review meetings.
