Riverside Community Care Family After-School Program Internship - Summer 2024 or 2024 / 2025 School Year in Somerville, Massachusetts

Seeking Bachelor and Master level interns to join our Family After-School Program as a clinical intern currently pursuing their degree in Social Work, Counseling, or related field preferred!

Our amazing Family After-School Program is a structured, therapeutic after-school program for children ages 6-12 who have experienced various challenges, including but not limited to neglect, homelessness, various forms of abuse, or trauma-related and neuro-developmental diagnoses such as PTSD or ADHD.

The primary goal of the Family After-School Program is to prevent hospitalization or out-of-home placement for youth who require therapeutic services and cannot attend a traditional after-school setting.
