Counseling Internships Available
Vision of Hope Residential Treatment Center, associated with Faith Baptist Church, Lafayette, Ind., works with girls ages 14–28 who are struggling with unplanned pregnancies, drug/alcohol abuse, eating disorders, and habits of self-harm. The ministry of Vision of Hope is Christ-centered, Bible based, and individualized to meet the needs of each participating girl. The program is highly structured in a loving, home-like environment.
Vision of Hope is looking for young female interns to assist in the ministry of caring for these young ladies while gaining hands-on experience in this field. The Vision of Hope staff and intern team serve together to provide quality care to each young woman. Interns live at the residence and provide 24 hours of additional resident supervision per week. Interns may work, pursue Biblical counseling education from Faith Biblical Counseling Ministries, earn college credits, etc., during their off-duty hours. Any counseling education will occur on interns’ own time and at their own expense.
If a young woman in your church is interested in pursuing an internship with Vision of Hope, she may contact Tori Shirk, tshirk@vohlafayette.org, (765) 447-5900.
