There is an internship available in our peer-mediation program at Somerville High School. This program primarily handles disputes between students. Intern duties include conducting intake and setting up mediations, co-mediating and assisting in the training of student mediators. A requirement for this internship is that the individual must have been trained as a mediator. The programs in these schools provide a unique opportunity to help decrease violence and teach valuable skills to young adults of diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds.

This is a non-paid internship and requires a minimum of 10 hours per week. The internship runs during the school year.
