Today, Zakeya Thompson finished her internship with Families as Allies, and we wish her the absolute best! Zakeya is pursuing a bachelor’s degree in social work from Jackson State University. She brings compassion, enthusiasm, and professionalism to everything she does.
As is always true with our interns, we learned just as much, if not more, from Zakeya as she did from us. If they want to do so, we ask interns to share their thoughts about their internships with us on their last day. Please take a few minutes to read what Zakeya wrote.
Families as Allies is always open to talking to students seeking internship and practicum placements. Over the years, we have hosted social work interns, Ph.D psychology students and medical trainees doing practicum placements. Please keep us in mind as a placement site for any trainees working in the children’s system of care or on policy issues.
