  • Aug 2014 - Aug 2015

  During my internship with Volunteers of America I have obtained crucial knowledge and experience through a multitude of different responsibilities. Initially I worked at a state prison within a dual diagnosis program that administered assessments in an attempt to develop an intervention designed to decrease recidivism rates. Once the grant was finished, I moved onto a substance abuse rehabilitation program for men as a counselor developing treatment plans and completing intakes. During the time I was engaged in the prison and rehabilitation program, I also assisted in the creating/implementation of a non-profit that is focused around addiction and recovery through outreach and contributing to the Board of Directors.
