“The RNH Youth Internship Program was one of the biggest factors in helping me get to where I am now. Being my first experience at a “job”, it helped me develop skills that would become essential in my academic and professional career. Responsibility, time management, and effective communication are just a few of the skills that the internship program helped me to cultivate as I progressed through high school.” - Summer 2021 Intern
