Intern Profile – Aly

My name is Aly. I am a senior social work major from Crown Point, IN. The social work department feels like family and home to me. I was the president of the student social work organization. I have a passion for advocating for human rights. I really enjoy empowering women and enriching the lives of others. Last year, I had the wonderful opportunity to intern at The Caring Place, a domestic violence shelter. I had the privilege of helping women in the shelter, as well as leading empowerment and self-esteem groups. My final field placement was at Dayspring in Valparaiso, IN. I worked with homeless women. I also did case management with the homeless population in the area. end
