Two offices within KRM provide social services to newly-arrived individuals and families: the Refugees of the World (ROW) Office and the Cuban/Haitian Office. Both offices focus on securing basic needs such as housing, financial security, access to food/public benefits, and orientation to local transit. Assignments may include preparing for client’s arrival in the U.S., supporting clients in accessing appointments, maintaining case files, and conducting socially distanced home visits. Spanish language proficiency is preferred if working with the Cuban/Haitian office. Interns working in these programs report to Case Mangers. Available hours per week: 12-20.
Interns typically work for a semester or summer/winter term; applications are accepted on a rolling basis.
