Public Health Education in a Hands On Setting
We are proud to have been able to offer Summer Internships to a variety of talented, dedicated learners over the years. Whether providing administrative support or engaging directly with patients, interns can be vital to our success.
Becoming a Summer Intern at BHCHP
BHCHP is currently assessing its needs for the summer of 2025. If you wish to be considered for a summer internship, you can submit your resume to volunteer@bhchp.org.
Please be aware that we receive far more inquiries and applicants than we have roles. As a result, we will reach back out only if we have identified a match.
Some things to be aware of ahead of time:
- You do not have to be pre-med to volunteer or intern with us.
- The vast majority of our internship roles exercise a case management function. This involves direct, sustained interaction with populations that have experienced significant trauma,
- Interns will not engage in direct clinical work, so no taking of vitals, distribution of medications, etc.
- At this time we are not able to pay interns a stipend or salary.
- The application process may include completion of a criminal background check (which will include submitting a valid photo ID), submitting various immunization records, as well as proof of COVID vaccination
Other Opportunities
We realize that not everyone goes to a school that has a formal internship arrangement with us or has the capacity to investigate such an arrangement. Likewise, we understand not everyone has the capability to engage in a summer internship.
For these reasons we are willing to consider alternate internship arrangements. These arrangements will be handled through our volunteer process. For more information on this process and volunteer roles, click here.
Finally, we regret that we receive far more requests than available roles and are not able to provide a response for every inquiry. Therefore, we will reach out only when a match to a need is identified. We apologize ahead of time if we are not able to respond to your inquiry.
