Youth Action Coalition; Amherst, MA

At this placement I was responsible for editing grant proposal, evaluating programs, observing, interviewing and writing up field notes. The last 20 hours were solely observing and field notes.

I think this is an average to very good placement and recommend it to someone that could be an advisor/ intern in the programs and be sure to regularly attend events. If I could change one thing about this placement is to reduce the required time at events of unusual times.

I definitely advise taking an internship if you have the chance.
