Virginia Beach Parks and Recreation

“The Therapeutic Recreation department has an amazing internship opportunity. I met so many amazing staff members throughout my time there. Along with amazing staff, I was able to sit in on city meetings. I now have experience working with children with special needs in a community setting. I had the opportunity to work with children in an after school setting and in an instructional summer day camp. The supervisors are approachable and want to see you succeed.”

“I worked with children with varying disabilities in a camp setting and it was a great experience for my major. It really helped me gain experience in the field. ”
