Internships

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

Our University Partnerships

The William George Agency partners with more than 20 colleges and universities to offer clinical internships, such as for 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 serves to develop the best of each intern’s professional capacity and inspire a life long investment in the values, goals and skills of working in child welfare and other professions.
