Local Internships

"I have thoroughly enjoyed my first week of work.  I am already familiar with the children and I feel like I have learned a  want to teach, but I do know that whatever I do in life will be with kids, many of which will have problems…Many of them had a very poor family life before coming to Bruce Normile, so they really think of the staff as family members and that is a great feeling...I enjoy every minute that I spend with those kids….” -Allie Grimm, Normile Family Center

 

“...Without this experience I would still be asking myself if I would be strong enough, smart enough or even just streetwise enough to survive working with this group of people…”  Amy states how good it felt to know they felt comfortable with her.  It gave her the inspiration to pursue addiction counseling as a possible career. - Amy Wheeler, Preferred Family Healthcare
