We were fortunate to have two interns this summer. Here is a short note from one of them, Caron Alpers:
In conclusion of my summer internship, I am reflecting on my placement with this social service organization. United Way of Northwest Michigan has offered me valuable opportunities to gain a feel for what working in the social work field will be like. I have been introduced to, and have gained an appreciation of, many professionally and personally - and have felt part of a professional team. I state with confidence that this committed team is working to ensure equal access to resources for all people. I grew in my understanding of the many resources available to my neighbors - many that I was previously unaware of. I connected, in a variety of ways, to the new 2-1-1 data base and that has been enlightening. This internship has been a valuable learning tool and a motivator to me to continue with my goal.
