Sports Mental Health & Behavioral Wellness Internship in Detroit, Mich

Job Overview

Job Description

Sports Mental Health & Behavioral Wellness Internship in Detroit, Michigan Connecting People to Purpose
Location: Remote (open to applicants in Detroit, MI and nationwide)

A CITY THAT KNOWS HOW TO KEEP GOING
Detroit reveres endurance, and it inherited a hard rule: suffer quietly, never burden anyone. This fellowship questions that rule through a quarterback who lived it.

YOUR ENTRY FIRST
Step One: enter as an academic intern for credit through your school, or volunteer; or enroll in the School for Humans Flourishing.

PROOF OPENS THE NEXT DOOR
Step Two is reserved for those who demonstrate success as reliable, consistent, and living the Five Principles: Leadership Fellows at $25 to $35 per hour first, then consultants at $50 to $100 per hour.

THE ORGANIZING STORY
Spend the term with an ALL THE SMOKE interview where Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson draw out Warren Moon on racism, family pressure, and secretly attending therapy. The chapter called Secretly Attending Therapy is the emotional center, and his refrain, asking for help is a strength, is the argument. Passed over and undrafted as a quarterback, he went to the Edmonton Eskimos and seized five consecutive Grey Cups. The Houston Oilers then made him the NFL's highest-paid player. Then came nine Pro Bowls, a career until forty four, and a 2006 Hall of Fame welcome as the first undrafted and first Black quarterback inducted. Research connects racial trauma to hypertension, purpose to protection, and hidden treatment to stigma.

SIX CONTRIBUTIONS
Active Listening, Mental Health Research, Content Creation, Community Education, Purpose Connection, and Legacy in Real Time.

THE GROUND RULES WE SHARE
Our foundation is the 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.

FOR THE COUNTED OUT
Athletes, coaches, and psychology, public health, social work, or media students fit here, gaining behavioral health fluency and a finished piece.

If you or someone you know is struggling, call or text 988 for the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.
