Cleveland Rape Crisis Center

SAKI Intern

June - August 2019 • Cleveland, OH

What I liked

It was an extreme privilege to be able to help sexual assault victims and help potentially link cases to repeat offenders. I felt like I was truly immersed in my field since I was helping real victims.

What I wish was different

Some internships (working with local, state and federal governments) tend to be unpaid which can seem unfair for the incredible amount of work that you do. Personally, I was fine being unpaid since I truly only cared about the victims-- but that is a unique case.

Advice

Make sure you are truly interested in exactly what they're asking you to do, and don't be afraid to ask any small question you have along the way-- any answer you can get about your field is beneficial. You will learn a lot!
