Greetings Life Changer,
Do you have what it takes to uplift and empower teens to elevate their esteem, make good decisions, and obtain leadership skills? If so, we are looking for positive role models to impact the hearts of youth who are enrolled in our afterschool program?
Are you looking for an environment to cultivate your skills as an emerging clinician in the field of social work and/or Mental Health? If so, Purpose Learning Lab , Inc is the place for you to tap into your inner community & behavioral health skills. We just launched our second licensed Mental Health Office "The Empress Haven, PLLC" in Durham , NC and we would love to have you a part of our internship team as my passion is to provide education, guidance, and support to emerging scholars who are passionate about this field.
This program offers the opportunity for students to enhance their knowledge and experiences learned through their non-paid experiential learning experiences.
We invite you to help us change the world as we provide Mental Health Services to underserved and rural Communities where care can be the most scarce.
Please email Mya @purposelearninglab@gmail.com for more information.
