Service Learning Our service-learning concept includes the Summer Youth Corps. The components of this program are:
Undergraduate applicants must be residents of Bucks County for this program. A doctoral level licensed psychologist, a graduate level intern/site supervisor will provide weekly supervision for students. Successful applicants will spend 32 hours in service activities with the host agency each week and 8 hours of academic, supervision and training activities. The student will be expected to complete a structured syllabus, including a project paper by the end of the program. Although not a requirement for participation, some academic institutions will be offering credits for these students as independent study or service-learning opportunities. Our expectation is that the curriculum and syllabus are flexible and can be adjusted for each academic institution. Employment Opportunity for Graduate Assistant Each Spring, the Summer Youth Corps program also looks for a graduate student to assist in weekly supervision, provide some hands-on services, and participate in workshops, and lectures as part of this program. The successful applicant for the graduate student intern position will serve 12 weeks (May to August) as a "Field Supervisor" based out of our Doylestown office, but providing weekly intern supervision and consultation with the site supervisor.
