Ossen Foundation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUnited Services is excited to work with QVCC and grateful to the Ossen Foundation for supporting this educational and experiential partnership,\u201d said United Services President\/CEO Diane Manning. \u201cWork in the human services field is both hard and rewarding and we are excited to help students learn that first-hand as we deliver behavioral health and wellness programs to our community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>United Services is the local mental health authority for 21 towns in northeastern Connecticut, delivering more than 30 behavioral health, wellness, and family service programs.<\/p>\n<p>Interim QVCC CEO Rose Ellis notes that \u201cthe experiential learning that students will gain through the program\u2019s internships provides them with both vital career preparation and a marketable advantage when applying for jobs. Financial support for these internships makes it possible for students with limited financial means to engage in such experiential learning opportunities without the burden of simultaneously taking on additional employment to support themselves through the semester.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The internship requires that students successfully complete 120 hours of field work along with all course obligations. The Spring course starts on February 22, 2021.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>About United Services, Inc.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em>United Services, Inc. is a private, non-profit and comprehensive
