My experience as a CJ intern

Embaileyyy



Before starting this internship, I had no idea what to expect or what my day to day would look like because I would be working 40 hours 5 days a week. By the end of the internship, I can wholeheartedly say that this experience is one that will change my life forever. In one aspect, it has given me insight and perspective on the homelessness crisis but also some insight on how important interpersonal relationships are for personal growth especially within the homeless population.

Although I got to dabble everywhere within the Hosp House, I particularly enjoyed the food pantry the most. Since my internship was 40 hours 5 days a week, I spent a lot of my time running the food pantry. I enjoyed learning more about our program and suppliers. My favorite part about the food pantry was the clients. I saw the majority of them every week so I got to build relationships with most of them. The picture above was one of my favorite moments in the food pantry. One of the food pantry clients' son brought me a drawing and thanked me for giving him food for the week. It was a sentimental moment for me and it reminded me of why giving back is so important.

This internship has been more than I could have imagined and I wouldn't have traded it for anything else. I enjoyed working alongside some great staff members and interns especially the shelter associates because I worked alongside them the most. I am thankful for this experience and I hope to carry this throughout my future endeavors.

Over time, factors like aging, pregnancy, and weight fluctuations can lead to breast sagging, affecting confidence and comfort. A breast lift is designed to correct this by tightening skin, repositioning the breasts, and enhancing symmetry. The procedure involves making strategic incisions, removing excess skin, and reshaping the breast tissue for a lifted, natural appearance. Partington Plastic Surgery offers a comprehensive overview of how the surgery is performed, what results to expect, and how to ensure a smooth recovery.
