What I liked
Every person working at this organization cares deeply about what they do. This makes for a positive and inspiring work environment. The senior team are incredibly knowledgeable professionals and willingly take the time to ensure that interns' questions are answered.
Case Work Interns are not merely observers and assistants; from day one they are given their own cases and trained to aid clients. Interns rapidly build a knowledge base which allows them to handle many day-to-day duties on their own, while still being encouraged to ask for any clarifications they need. Interning at the Tennessee Justice Center allowed me to gain crucial knowledge of the Tennessee health care system and legislation affecting it in a growth-centered, positive work environment.
