Why Intern with Us
The William George Agency is looking for hard working, motivated, and enthusiastic interns to join our team!
We strive to match the services, structure and culture of our programs and departments with the skills, interests, and time availability of interns.
Interns will acquire hands-on experience which supplements classroom theory. Here are some of the benefits of interning with us:
- A valuable addition to your resume
- Inside knowledge about the day-to-day operations of a non-profit organization
- Learn about child welfare issues which impact youth and families in New York State
University Partnerships for Clinical Internships
The William George Agency partners with nearly 30 colleges and universities to offer clinical internships in social work, mental health counseling, and substance use disorder counseling. Internships are available on campus in residential cottages and the Van Clef Outpatient Substance Treatment Program. The fieldwork experience helps develop the best of each intern’s professional capacity and inspire a lifelong investment in the values, goals, and skills of working in child welfare and other professions.
