Internship positions
💼 Two former counselors, Rowan and Matteo, supported our programs as interns this season. The internships, which are distinct from counselor roles, provide an opportunity for young people to explore their career interests and develop skills across the several industries that intersect with Onas. We value and appreciate the knowledge, curiosity, and creativity they brought to Onas this year! Revisit Matteo’s internship profile in our summer newsletter, and check out Rowan’s in this one.
