"Forget all of those horror stories you have heard about internships, the Parents as Teachers National Center Marketing/Communications internship was amazing. I was a valued member of the team with my own responsibilities. There was always someone ready to help me learn and answer my questions. And the only person’s coffee I ever got was my own!"  Brianne
