Ending Domestic Violence Creating Social Change
Getting
Involved on Campus:
Internship Program
Peaceful Paths Domestic Abuse Network is offers an exciting
internship opportunity in hands-on grassroots social change work. Our
Violence Prevention program works with local youth, schools, and community
agencies to prevent intimate partner violence before it occurs and build
healthy relationships. The Violence Prevention Internship Program has
been developed to provide interns a chance to both receive training
about intimate partner violence prevention and to experience this work
first hand. Violence Prevention is a rapidly expanding field, and this
is a great growth opportunity for people interested in working in a
variety of careers, including violence prevention, substance abuse prevention,
juvenile justice, social change, program planning and evaluation, and
community organizing, to name a few. Some of the things interns will
be able to engage in are:
--Experiential social change—learn what it’s like to do
this work on a day to day basis
--Community networking with allied organizations
--Tools to facilitate group discussions amongst youth
--Discussion and personal reflection about intimate partner violence
and oppression
--Program planning and evaluation
