The Wediko Summer Program is a short term residential treatment program that serves approximately 150 children with emotional and behavioral difficulties each summer. Each year, we hire a group of dedicated, ambitious, and talented individuals to make the program meaningful and successful for each child. We offer a unique opportunity for students who are interested in psychology, social work, sociology, anthropology and other social science careers. The Wediko Summer Program uses a strengths-based model and trains staff extensively in behavior management, crisis intervention, group formation, and child development theories. Our internship provides students with 750 clinical hours, two supervisions per week with a licensed clinician, and the opportunity to work with experienced professionals in the mental health field.
