We are a nonprofit based in Los Angeles servicing primarily the community of Skidrow and South LA with housing, food, hygiene and clothing. We believe in installing compassion and empathy back into the community.
Please note: This internship may present additional risks due to being in an area with elevated crime statistics and/or working with individuals who may have a criminal background. Increased situation awareness should be exercised and extra care and precautions for personal safety should be taken. Ensure that you meet with your site supervisor to understand the increased risk in completing your internship at this site, as well as the appropriate measures you can take to mitigate and/or respond to these risks. Your orientation at the site should also include a general site safety orientation.
The homeless community may experience mental health issues, but the Intern will always be accompanied by team members and wont ever be alone.
Skidrow Los Angeles does have crime happening. We do not let anyone walk alone and we are located at one spot where we have plenty of team members and males providing security. We also do not allow anyone walking to their parked cars alone or unsupervised.
On site: Sundays from 830am-11am - if local. Other hours can be added. Internship will be two hours a day working on Social Media, content creation, editing, reaching out to brands etc.
