YOUTH SERVICE BUREAU: PROGRAMS (CONTINUED) <br />Runaway Shelter <br />(continued): Our first evaluation from HEW indicated <br />that they thought we had one of the most <br />promising programs in the Midwest Region. <br />Student Intern /Volunteers: Nearly 100 students have received college <br />credit for practicum work performed at <br />YSB. They have come from IUSB, Notre Dame, <br />St. Mary's, Bethel, I.U. Bloomington and <br />Penn State University. They have come <br />from eight different academic disciplines. <br />Mikki Dobski supervises their performance. <br />We have several volunteers also at YSB <br />and make use of volunteers from social <br />groups and Notre Dame to produce specific <br />activities for us. This unpaid labor is <br />a significant part of our program. <br />In the intern program it is hard to tell_ <br />who benefits more. While the students <br />learn first hand what social work /counsel- <br />ing is like as a career and gain invaluable <br />experience, we benefit from having addition- <br />al staff who provide unbounded enthusiasm <br />and fresh skills to an agency that is in <br />need of all the help it can get. <br />
