Each intern working with the Let Go…Let Peace Come In Foundation has a unique reason for contributing to our mission. Whether they themselves were victims, they were close to a victim, or they were inspired by the cause, each has dedicated their time to helping LGLPCI grow. Our interns work with us to promote our cause by reaching out to survivors, improving and updating our Web site, bringing new ideas to the program, and more. To date, our interns have come from local universities and have used this internship for valuable class credit. In the future, we hope to include international students in our internship program. If you are interested in participating in an internship program with LGLPCI please contact our Executive Director at gretchen@letgoletpeacecomein.org.

I was drawn to the Let Go…Let Peace Come In Foundation after mentoring a group of girls in Mexico, some of whom had been sexually abused. Helping adult survivors heal from trauma that may have happened many years ago is a worthy cause that receives too little attention. My days at LGLPCI were spent commenting […]
