Western Kansas Child Development Center

www.wkcac.org <http://www.wkcac.org/>

The mission of the Western Kansas Child Advocacy Center is to heal the trauma of child abuse to children and families through prevention, support and services.

Western Kansas Child Advocacy Center (WKCAC) is a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization based in Scott City, KS. WKCAC serves 29 counties in Western Kansas.

WKCAC is offering outstanding internship opportunities for highly motivated students—both graduate and undergraduate. These volunteer internships offer real-world experience in a variety of areas:

· Communications – Examples: television production, marketing and advertising, public education, fundraising, and advocacy.

· Technology – Examples: computer networks, website, “new media” (Twitter,Facebook, YouTube and more), data acquisition and management.

These are limited examples and do not cover the entire spectrum of opportunities.

WKCAC’s core program is a recorded forensic interview (click for more information <http://members.iquest.net/%7Edkoons/technique.html>) with victims of child abuse. These interviews must be conducted with the utmost sensitivity for the emotional welfare of the child, and yet they must meet rigorous standards of evidence to be admissible in court.

WKCAC is part of a nationwide network of Child Advocacy Centers, http://www.nationalcac.org <http://www.nationalcac.org/>, but WKCAC is a leader in delivering child advocacy services in rural and frontier areas. Distance and time are both nearly insurmountable barriers for victims of child abuse. Furthermore, forensic interviewing is a highly specialized skill that cannot realistically be developed and maintained in small, rural law enforcement agencies.

WKCAC is one of only three CACs in the country to operate from a Mobile Child Advocacy Center (click for photo <http://www.wkcac.org/Mobile%20CAC.jpg>). The Mobile CAC has revolutionized delivery of services in this vast, sparsely populated geographic area. The Mobile CAC has been so successful that WKCAC hopes to replicate this model nationwide to serve rural areas. The Mobile CAC also serves as a secure and supportive remote witness stand where children can testify without experiencing the trauma of a courtroom. The Mobile CAC’s television studio and fiber-optic signal delivery technology feed testimony from the Mobile CAC straight into the courtroom while the child victim remains cosseted in a friendly, secure environment. WCKAC also recently acquired a second mobile unit to deliver counseling and other advanced clinical services.

*WKCAC’s volunteer internship program is competitive, and it is year around. We accommodate interns throughout the school year and over the summer. Some internships, for example communications and technology, could be conducted at a distance.*

WKCAC’s internships comply with college credit requirements, including reporting and grading (if appropriate). We offer interns substantive, quality experiences and the opportunity to make a real difference in a field that impacts *one in five* children.

We have contacted the Admissions Office at Washburn University in the hope that you can share this internship opportunity with the appropriate contacts at Washburn University and invite them to contact us for WKCAC’s internship packet. Our packet includes signs for posting, application forms, internship descriptions and information about WKCAC. We hope to pave the way to begin in earnest in the fall.

/We realize that the spring semester has finished and students are home for the summer, but if Washburn University has students from Western Kansas, they may still be eager for the chance to participate in a summer internship. We urge you to share this notice with them and invite them to inquire. If we are contacted directly, we will coordinate with faculty and/or administration staff at your school to ensure that a last-minute internship fully complies with institutional requirements./

Please contact me directly for more information about internships at Western Kansas Child Advocacy Center. I provide communications and organizational support services for WKCAC.
