Welcome Student Interns: Growing Future Leaders at Manos Unidas!
Manos Unidas is proud to welcome a brand-new cohort of passionate student interns for the upcoming academic year! Our internship program provides an intimate, hands-on learning environment where emerging professionals gain real-world experience, build meaningful relationships, and deliver direct support to Hispanic and Latino families across North King County.
Hands-On Mentorship & Clinical Supervision
We believe in supporting our interns with the highest level of professional guidance. Students in our program work directly under the mentorship of our Executive Director, who brings over a decade of dedicated experience guiding student cohorts at Manos Unidas.
In addition, social work students receive clinical oversight and supervision from Board Chair Catalina Angel, a Licensed MSW Practitioner. This dual mentorship structure ensures our interns develop strong practical skills while building a deep foundation in culturally responsive, trauma-informed care.
Academic Partnerships Across the Region
Our program continues to grow through strong ties with leading regional higher education institutions. This year, we are honored to host students from:
University of Washington — School of Social Work
Lake Washington Institute of Technology — Behavioral Health Program
Edmonds College — Human Services Department
