In addition to the often sought after disciplines in therapy and counseling, social work and other psychology related areas of study, it seems any career interest can find an outlet in our agency. Internship opportunities exist for business, information technology, marketing, politics, research, chaplaincy, advocacy, youth ministry, and recreational sciences.

The programs and departments at Lost and Found Inc. work closely with the individual intern and the educational institution to define practical goals and outcomes reflective of the learning process.
