Southeastern Residential Services is seeking adults between the ages of 18 and 24 to work full time this summer supporting our individuals. In addition to providing assistance and friendship to the individuals they support, the summer interns are provided with unique career opportunities relative to their majors and career concentrations.
These opportunities encourage interaction and integration into the community for the individuals. services and opportunities to work toward education and employment goals. These activities include concerts, Patriot’s training camp practices, and trips to aquariums, restaurants, libraries and local coffee shops. The Humboldt County Transition-Age Youth Collaboration (HCTAYC) is committed. The students accompany the individuals on frequent community outings and day trips. By immersing these eager students in the Human Services field, SRS hopes to play a role in shaping their career direction. The interns of SRS provide a fresh, new perspective and a spirited energy to both the agency and the people they support. The summer interns provide both personal care support and participate in the involvement of the individuals into the community. These interns are offered the opportunity to work full time in residential homes across the Southeast Region of Massachusetts. Each year, SRS carefully selects a group of motivated and talented students with a broad variety of interests to work for the agency as summer interns. The Urban Youth Collaborative Program at Southeastern Residential Services (SRS) provides students (ranging from ages 18 to 24) with a unique and rewarding internship experience in the Human Services field. Our ultimate goal is for young adults to strongly consider careers supporting people with developmental disabilities – as lawyers, accountants, Program Directors, residential staff, nurses, Occupational Therapists, Physical Therapists, and a wide range of other roles.
The Department of Developmental Services is proud to sponsor the Urban Youth Collaborative which enriches the lives of both the students and individuals receiving supports from Southeastern Residential Services (SRS).
