Living On Campus
An important benefit of our internship program is the opportunity to live right here on campus. Because of the sensitive nature of our work, this option is currently available to our female interns. Living on-site offers a safe, comfortable home during the internship, along with the chance to be part of the daily rhythm and community of our campus.
​
As part of living on campus, our female interns may be asked to help with shared responsibilities which help keep our campus safe and running smoothly.
​
For male interns on our 6-month track, Hope Center Indy is glad to attempt to connect them with a welcoming host family within 15 miles of our campus. Interns living with a host family are responsible for their own transportation.
