Field education
Assignments
Interns provide comprehensive social work services to women receiving legal representation from inMotion. Cases range from women in acute crisis, due to domestic violence, to women in the process of obtaining divorces who need an array of supportive services. Interns assist in developing and implementing educational opportunities for clients, such as financial literacy workshops and career-focused clinics.

Bilingual students
More than 50% of inMotion’s clients are Latinas. Interns fluent in Spanish, or another language spoken by a major immigrant community in our city, contribute their ability to communicate with many clients in their primary language about their needs for assistance.
