Jewish Federation of St. Louis is excited to launch the second phase of the Karen Solomon Internship Initiative, a program of the St. Louis Jewish Community Inclusion Initiative. This part time, 16 week paid internship was created to enhance job skills for a young adult with disabilities who will engage in a meaningful employment experience in one of the Jewish community organizations.

The first phase of the program was launched in late March, 2015. The program’s first intern successfully completed a 16 week internship at Jewish Federation of St. Louis. In this next phase, an intern will have the opportunity to work in another Jewish organization in a workplace that both accommodates individuals with a range of disabilities and a work environment that promotes inclusion of all employees.

Applications are being accepted through September 16, 2015. For more information about the program please contact Rinat Kisin at RKisin@JFedSTL.org, or 314-442-3801.

This program is made possible thanks to a generous support of the Bill Solomon family.
