Youth Advocate Programs

Behavioral Health Technician

July 2019 • New Milford, PA

What I liked

Everyone is so supportive and uplifting. Everyone is willing to help with whatever concerns I have and shows me that I am a vital component of our team.

What I wish was different

I wish I had been more confident to take on more clients at an earlier date.

Advice

Advice I would give in a job like this is not to be afraid to ask for help or share concerns because it is sometimes easier to see the obvious things as someone from the outside.

Youth advocate

August 2017 - December 2018 • Las Vegas, NV

What I liked

The clients and advocates

What I wish was different

That this was an actual internship, they just exploited college students for free labor and didn’t teach us anything.

Advice

Don’t work for them, you will take nothing away from this experience, there are other non-profits that are more professional and WILL teach you how to work non profit.
