IFR offers multiple internship opportunities:
The goal of this doctoral and master-level training program is to provide quality bilingual/bicultural training for emerging professionals in order to meet the mental health care needs of the Latino community in a manner and setting which is culturally, socially, and clinically appropriate and effective.
Placements through this program are available at several pre-schools, elementary, and middle schools, with an emphasis on serving the multicultural community in San Francisco. The program places great importance on prevention, early intervention and clinical case management as the preferred mode of intervention. Direct service counseling plays a supportive role to systemic interventions.
Interns interested in learning about the administrative, funding, staff and organizational development activities of nonprofit and community-based agencies are encouraged to apply. Each trainee will work closely with an appointed Director to develop an individualized curriculum based on agency needs and Intern interests.
The interns in this track will gain expertise in a system where Latinos families have access to an array of easily accessible, holistic and culturally appropriate activities that are provided in a friendly and parent-driven environment.
