Job Overview

Job Description

Sports Mental Health & Behavioral Wellness Internship in Seattle, Washington Connecting People to Purpose
Location: Remote (open to applicants in Seattle, WA and nationwide)

CAN A CITY THIS LOUD LEARN TO LISTEN INWARD?
Seattle roars at Lumen Field and celebrates Storm titles, yet locker rooms have often stayed silent about distress. This remote role joins a national cohort online, and no local office or partnership is claimed.

WHO SHOULD APPLY?
Apply if you study psychology, communications, or health, or care about competitors as whole people. Curiosity matters more than a perfect resume.

WHAT STORY SITS AT THE CENTER?
On ALL THE SMOKE, Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson interview Warren Moon on racism, family pressure, and secretly attending therapy. Undrafted as a quarterback, Moon signed with the Edmonton Eskimos and won five consecutive Grey Cups, then joined the Houston Oilers and became the NFL's highest-paid player. Nine Pro Bowls, play until forty four, and a 2006 Hall of Fame entry as the first undrafted and first Black quarterback inducted followed. His "Secretly Attending Therapy" chapter teaches that asking for help is a strength.

WHAT WILL YOU MAKE AND PRACTICE?
Your weeks mix Active Listening, Mental Health Research, Content Creation, Community Education, Purpose Connection, and Legacy in Real Time.

WHAT DO YOU GAIN?
You gain a portfolio piece and practice turning research into plain language.

WHAT ARE THE PRACTICAL DETAILS?
The program lasts eight weeks, remote and flexible, five to fifteen hours a week, in a national cohort online. New cohorts begin on the first of each month. Current students may join paid special projects at $20 to $30 per hour. Voice Up Publishing Incorporated posts this internship.

WHICH VALUES SHAPE THE WORK?
Our Five Principles of Voice Up: Collaboration (all are welcome), Humility (we all have much to learn), Precision (all the details matter), Patience (we all need forgiveness; we all make mistakes and learn from each), Empathy (we must understand your why). This is how Voice Up has achieved what it has to date.

HOW DO YOU BEGIN? STEP ONE
Start as an academic intern for credit through your school, or volunteer; or enroll in the School for Humans Flourishing.

WHERE CAN STEADY WORK LEAD? STEP TWO
Those who demonstrate success, reliable, consistent, and living the Five Principles, may advance first to Leadership Fellows at $25 to $35 per hour, then to consultants at $50 to $100 per hour.
