Tell us about your BYU internship experience(s):

My internship has been absolutely amazing. I was apprehensive and nervous about my experience (Utah County Division of Substance Abuse) working with women and substance abuse, but it turned out to be a fantastic experience. It is something I would like to do once I graduate.
