Our Impact

The Up Center offers a wide variety of internship, licensing, and volunteer opportunities both on-site and remotely. Internships are applicable for degree seeking students enrolled in an internship course. The Up Center also provides ongoing and sporadic volunteer opportunities for special events. Volunteer opportunities are continuously evolving as we seek to actively include and create partnerships with members of our community. We also welcome inquiries about highly skilled volunteer contributions (i.e., accounting, finance, etc.) that may not be listed in our opportunities. Applicants for internships and volunteering are taken on a rolling basis throughout the year
