If I am selected for an IJM international internship position, will this allow me to have direct contact in counseling victims of sex-trafficking, slavery and other forms of oppression?
All international interns and fellows work closely with IJM staff in assisting our clients. Thus they receive exposure to the issues involved in rescuing and providing a new life to victims of oppression. However, traditionally only trained IJM professionals or certain aftercare fellows will have direct contact with IJM clients. Due to language barriers, IJM relies on its national staff and aftercare partners to provide counseling.
