Make Your Summer Count - Build Skills, Gain Experience, Make an Impact

As an Urban Youth Summer Intern, you will gain hands‑on experience supporting individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities while exploring a meaningful career in Human Services.

This internship is your chance to step into a career that truly matters. You’ll develop valuable life and professional skills, build relationships that will stay with you long after summer ends, and discover what it means to support others in living full, independent, and meaningful lives.
