Public health is my passion so being apart of the department at a state level is an unparalleled experience. I worked on a variety of projects that have better equipped me to be a health educator.
What I wish was different
I wish it could have been for longer! Right as things began to pick up, my time there was coming to an end.
Advice
If you are interested in seeing how things are run and trickled down from the state to local counties, do this internship. There is a lot of valuable experience and networking that can be done!
