Behavioral Health Practicum
Past Trainee Testimonials
“I could not have asked for a better practicum experience. The work environment was incredibly supportive, friendly, and insightful. The trainings were incredibly informative, and the hands-on experience was invaluable.”
“[YouthPoint] does all the rights things. You ask for feedback openly and honestly throughout the year. You deal with issues right away and don't allow them to fester. You encourage everyone's voice to be heard. You are flexible to acting on new ideas.”
“This program is a shining example of a community program that is a well-oiled machine and doing real, concrete, positive, and transformative work. I'm very happy that the next batch of interns will get a better stipend and I feel like the model of this operation can be copy/pasted to other communities across the country and lead to serious positive change for young folks and their families everywhere.”
