Kaylee Starts Youth Mentoring Internship

BySupport Helping Services for Youth & Families

My name is Kaylee Martin and I am a sophomore social work major at Luther College from the Chicago metro area. I love Luther College and am extremely grateful for all the opportunities the social work program has given me thus far. I will be interning with Youth Mentoring at Helping Services for Youth & Families for my J-term field experience.

I spend my summers working here in Decorah at Opportunity Homes Inc. as a skills trainer. I love working with and helping others. This January, when I am not at Helping Services, you can find me on the Luther College campus!

I am very passionate about working with and helping children. I am so excited and appreciative to be interning at Helping Services for my social work field experience. Stop by and say hello to me at the Helping Services office at 805 E Main St. in Decorah.
