UPDATE (Feb. 19, 2020) - Due to overwhelming interest, BHCHP is not accepting further internship applications for the Summer of 2020.
An In-Depth Learning Opportunity
BHCHP offers a limited number of unpaid (non-Masters level) internships throughout the year. Individuals can explore a career in medicine, public health or human services at BHCHP while gaining experience and in-depth learning in one or more areas of homeless medicine.
Undergraduate internships are most often structured to combine a variety of service experiences and program teams/sites. Whenever possible, we look to provide balance in our internships by assigning individuals to roles that involve both patient contact in clinical settings and work that is administrative in nature. Because these internships are based on volunteer openings it is often difficult to predict availability well in advance.
Hours - Weekdays during normal business hours; limited weekend and evening shifts may be available.
Commitment - 12 - 40 hours per week, for a summer, semester or academic year.
Location - Multiple sites in and around Boston.
