The Post-MSW Graduate Fellowship is designed to provide advanced clinical training for a recent graduate (December 2025 or May 2026) from a Master of Social Work program. The Fellow will be oriented to a system of care for youth and women who have experienced or are at‑risk of commercial sexual exploitation in community-based and residential treatment settings. Additionally, the Post-MSW Graduate Fellow will provide research and analytic support for the organization’s impact, evaluation, and research initiatives to ensure evidence-based, data-informed practices.
