Job Overview

Job Description

Sports Mental Health & Behavioral Wellness Internship in Atlanta, Georgia Connecting People to Purpose
Location: Remote (open to applicants in Atlanta, GA and nationwide)

SERMONS MEET KICKOFFS
Falcons debates spill out of barbershops, Braves summers stretch long, and pastors, counselors, and HBCU classrooms host frank talk about pain weekly.

THE PARTICULARS IN BRIEF
Voice Up Publishing Incorporated posts this internship. Expect eight weeks, remote and flexible at five to fifteen hours a week, inside a national cohort online. The internship is remote with a national cohort online and no local office or partnership is claimed. Paid special projects at $20 to $30 per hour sometimes open to students. New cohorts begin on the first of each month.

INSIDE ONE HONEST CONVERSATION
An ALL THE SMOKE episode anchors the term: Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson interview Warren Moon, who recounts racism, family pressure, and secretly attending therapy while playing, with Secretly Attending Therapy as the chapter everything orbits. Moon repeats that asking for help is a strength. Overlooked and undrafted as a quarterback, he signed with the Edmonton Eskimos and won five consecutive Grey Cups, joined the Houston Oilers, became the NFL's highest-paid player, amassed nine Pro Bowls, played until forty four, and in 2006 joined the Hall of Fame as the first undrafted and first Black quarterback inducted. Science notes link racial stress to hypertension, purpose to resilience, and secrecy to stigma.

HOW THE FELLOWSHIP SPENDS ITS TIME
Six modes structure the weeks:Active Listening, Mental Health Research, Content Creation, Community Education, Purpose Connection, and Legacy in Real Time.

BRING YOUR BACKGROUND, LEAVE WITH PROOF
Counseling, psychology, and public health students, athletes, coaches, and makers belong. Depart with published work and research literacy.
