  • Per ACLP, a pre-internship is defined as a student opportunity within healthcare or other community-based settings in which psychosocial support is provided to children and families in stressful situations. Examples may include: child life practicums, experiences at non-profits, medical camps, children’s shelters, etc. If you are unsure if your experience meets these guidelines, email scholarshipcommittee@glaclp.onmicrosoft.com for help.
