Social Work Intern Building a Better Future for Kids
SOCIAL WORK INTERN BUILDING A BETTER FUTURE FOR KIDS
By Stuart Esrock, Ph.D.
Internships and co-ops can certainly help students advance their career ambitions. But in many instances, these work experiences also provide important benefits to our community. Kayce Dallas is continuing an internship that does just that.
The Henderson, Kentucky graduate student is working toward an M.S. degree in Social Work and will graduate in May. Dallas has been interning with Kentucky Youth Advocates (KYA) for more than a year now. KYA advocates for policies in the state that benefit and protect children. Dallas has worked on initiatives that address problems with child abuse, neglect, and other “adverse childhood experiences.” Her internship has included research, focus groups, website, and blog work, drafting grant applications, and helping to plan “Child Advocacy Week.”
