Our Internship Program is currently on a case-by-case basis, due to the current Covid-19 Pandemic. If we can fulfill the requirements of your internship program and make it work, we are interested in partnering with you!
You should know that we are currently not operating from our office. All of our work in the community and all of our internal and external meetings are online, primarily using Zoom or some other videoconferencing format. When we return to operating in our physical office, our internship program will be back in full swing! Please continue to check back here for updates or call our office. And you are welcome to complete the Intern Application at anytime.
Internships with YES Institute provide opportunities to contribute to our groundbreaking work and receive training in our powerful models of communication and education.
Taking Communications Solutions™ provided me with an entirely new approach to conflict resolution. It taught me not to collapse “having a voice” with combative aggression. I have faith that my internship with YES Institute will provide me with the opportunities to live and communicate authentically. – FALL 2018 High School Intern
