Description
According to the Urban Institute, Dallas has one of the highest levels of neighborhood inequality in the nation. A burgeoning cluster of courses in sociology familiarizes students with nonprofit and community-based organizations, their organizational dynamics, and their strategies for engaging community needs in areas including homelessness, domestic violence, and educational and social services in lower-income communities.
Your support will place an SMU student in a guided internship in a local nonprofit – enabling them to put their classroom knowledge to work in partnership with local agencies, and helping them develop their career pathway in a growing field.
Any and all contributions to fostering these partnerships will be highly appreciated!
