  5. my internship.
  6. So here is where the internship is located.
  7. It's inside the sheriff's office, which is located in the
  8. courthouse on 100 west third Street.
  9. There's the phone number for that, and Mr Chad Suggs
  10. is the person who handles all the interns for this

  15. This is an amazing position, and I would love to
  16. help you learn how to land this role.
  17. Here's just a little bit more about what we do.
  18. We work with victims to help them seek and fill
  19. out and file domestic violence protection orders.
  20. And we also work with people to do no contact
  21. orders. Um, just a quick mental health morning, though you
  22. you will be exposed to a lot of people's traumas.
  23. A lot of their hardships, Um, and a lot of
  24. things are not.
  25. Don't always work out the way that we would like
  26. them to.
  27. There are a lot of sad cases, so it's important
  28. to be aware of what you can handle and ensure
  29. that you have a self care plan in place.
  30. Here's some of the responsibilities.
  31. Such a speaking with victims.
  32. You'll inform them about the process.
  33. You'll help them with the paperwork.
  34. You'll get to file it and go see how the
  35. court process works and what happens when the judge gets
  36. involved. It's a pretty neat thing.
  37. Yeah, things I love about my internship are the amazing
  38. and supportive staff, the flexible hours and it's great location.
  39. It's been such a fulfilling process to to see that
  40. victims when they get relief like once their orders are
  41. in place, it's just it's amazing.
  42. Here are some challenges.
  43. It's just very.
  44. It's an emotional thing to do.
  45. Um, and it's hard to not interject your own emotion
  46. into your work and trying to find that balance of
  47. keeping work and your own personal feeling separate.
  48. It's it's definitely a challenge, but it's definitely worth it.
  49. All right, child, let me know if you have any
  50. questions. Thank you guys.
