About Our Organization
Youth Guidance creates and implements school-based programs that enable children to overcome obstacles, focus on their education, and ultimately, to succeed in school and in life. We believe that no matter what challenges a young person faces, they are more likely to succeed when they have caring adults in their lives. Our highly trained staff guides kids to overcome the life and academic challenges facing the youth. We meet kids where they are — physically and emotionally — to help them focus on their education, make positive choices, and remain on the right path toward life success.
Founded in 1924 and celebrating 100 years of impact this year, Youth Guidance is a leading provider of outcomes-driven programs serving more than 18,000 youth around the country. For more information, visit www.youth-guidance.org.
The Youth Guidance Internship is a career development program that empowers interns to pursue meaningful careers in non-profit, administration, counseling, and social work fields. Interns will be equipped with the skills and experiences to make a significant impact in their communities and beyond.
Position Summary: Youth Guidance Direct Service Internships are designed to meet school requirements for “Internship”, “Practicum”, “Capstone” or related classes that include onsite learning with regular supervision and direct, face-to-face client interaction. Our internships meet the requirements of most Social Work, Counseling, Psychology, and related degree programs. Youth Guidance clinical interns participate in weekly supervision and monthly team meetings and may run individual and group counseling sessions depending on proficiency and skill level. Clinical internships occur in school-based settings for most Youth Guidance programs but may also include virtual and/or community-based service provision.
