Since 2019, HumRRO has proudly partnered with Urban Alliance<\/a> (UA), a national nonprofit organization dedicated to creating opportunities for young people through skills training, mentorship, and meaningful paid work experiences. As a fellow nonprofit organization, HumRRO focuses on contributing to society through our work and by supporting initiatives such as the UA Internship Program<\/a>.<\/p>\n Each year, Urban Alliance places nearly 500 high school students into nine-month paid internships at partner organizations in the Greater Washington, D.C., area, as well as in Baltimore, Detroit and Chicago. Students complete six weeks of pre-employment job skills training before starting their internships in January, working 12 hours per week after school until graduation and then 32 hours per week through July.<\/p>\n<\/div>
