The Johnson Intern Program (JIP) partners with organizations in the community to provide our interns with meaningful work, excellent supervision, and ongoing training. We match our interns and placements through an elaborate system of information sharing and interviews that take place when the interns first arrive in Chapel Hill.
Following a time of retreat and initial training with the intern group, JIP members begin their service with a Partner Organization (PO) in the third week of September.
Each week our interns serve 32 hours in their placements (Monday through Thursday). Fridays are reserved for our leadership training that is based on the servant-leader model. The hours that the placements require vary, and some evening (and occasionally) weekend hours are necessary.
The interns are challenged to fulfill the needs that their placements present while also honoring the commitments they make to the intentional community.
Typically our POs change a bit from year-to-year. Our 2007-2008 Partner Organizations are:
