Internship

Hope Works, 足彩胜负14场, VT

Describe the nature of your internship: What was your title? What did you do? What opportunities did you have?

At my internship at Hope Works in 足彩胜负14场, I am a sexual assault advocate tending the hotline and connecting victims and survivors with the necessary recourses to get back on their feet and help them to be resilient to their traumatic experiences. A lot of the time, it’s just answering the phone and listening to the survivors share their story, being someone they can talk to and creating a safe space to do so.

What have you learned through the InSight program? How will it help you in the future?

I have learned many concepts through the InSight program. However, the most important thing that has stayed with me is financial budgeting and learning to keep yourself accountable on that budget. With this, we research and report the approximate salary we make a year after graduation in our field. We separate our budgets down by month and how much we should be spending each month per area of budget while making sure there is some money left for “a rainy day.” As a college student, this has helped me when it came time to needing a budget within school alone. Using what I learned, I took what I make while working to create a monthly budget of what I need in order to “survive” that month of school and having to make the sacrifices of taking things out or adding things in when an emergency arises.

Where is your favorite spot on campus?

My favorite spot on campus would have to be the different quads such as Finney Quad or Rozendaal Courtyard because my friends and I gather to play frisbee after long exhausting days or simply just chat or run around to relax. One of my other favorite spots on campus is the Fireside Lounge. I love this space because so many student activities have taken place there and I enjoy connecting with everyone. Some of my favorite people-Jared Cadrette and Kelsey O’Connor- work very closely in this area and they have helped me significantly with my time here at Champlain.

I fell in love with the close-knit community and the small class sizes which allowed me to get to know my professors better, and them to know me as an individual.
