About The Position
Youth Villages offers paid internship opportunities for master's students in social services disciplines through select residential and community-based programs. Placements are determined during the interview process based on availability, academic requirements, and the applicant’s experience. Youth Villages works with interns and their academic programs to create placements that fit practicum needs and class schedules and support course credit.
