Von Wald Youth Shelter Internship

Abstract

Von Wald is a youth shelter in Rochester, Minnesota that mainly houses homeless or truancy teenagers. I completed my internship here and learned how the shelter operated, both from a case manager and youth advocate perspective. I did tasks such as learning the behind-the-scenes paperwork, how to complete an intake, organize group work, and how to interact with youth in a professional setting.
