EJC Internships / Partnerships in Action
If you are a college student, a seminarian, or seek a more formal volunteer experience, become part of our Partnerships in Action Program. Through this program EJC enters into formal partnership with individuals interested in carrying out a specific project.  EJC staff then works to help outline specific objectives, work tasks, a schedule and a budget for a project that is call-based and motivational for the intern or volunteer, as well as program-oriented and practical for EJC.The Partners in Action Program fits well with those seeking a work-study or  academic internship through colleges or universities.  It also can serve as a vehicle to gain valuable work experience, while carrying our a self-designed initiative.  Contact us by email or phone (773.556.3417) for more information or to discuss your ideas.
