Disposition Services Internship Program
Candidates for an undergraduate or graduate degree in social work or mental
health counseling can participate in our Disposition Services Internship
Program. We are always looking for inquisitive, insightful, empathetic persons
with superior written- and oral-communications skills to work in our Disposition
Services Unit.
Our disposition specialists assist assistant public defenders in all
divisions by assessing clients’ individual needs and strengths and then
developing rehabilitative treatment and sentencing plans for our clients.
Interns receive formal supervision under which they may interview clients and
their families. They also assist with preparation of psycho-social histories,
access services for clients and learn about community resources. Interested
students should contact their school’s placement office. They also can either
email their resume to Lolita Samaroo,
Supervisor of the Disposition Services Unit, or mail it to her at the
address given at the bottom of this page.
