CapCityKids: School of Social WorkInternship Program
Designed to support a wide range of students from pre-K through age 21, the CapCityKids School of Social Work Internship Program provides direct counseling and social services by placing University of Texas graduate social work students at several AISD campuses. These placements give UT students the learning environment and internship hours they need to earn course credit.
The hours count toward the minimum 900 hours of field practicum learning required for graduation, while also providing students with a rewarding social work field experience.
The program was originally organized and spearheaded by Kate Amerson, LCSW-S, who led the CapCityKids School of Social Work Internship Program for a decade. Amerson witnessed significant growth since its inception in 2009, and her work has impacted the lives of countless students and their families.
