Summer Internships Come to a Successful Close
Long Beach CaLL's summer internship program has officially come to a close. We are excited to have placed 43 student interns with 26 employers across the cities of Long Beach and Los Angeles. Long Beach CaLL would like to thank all the students, partners, and employers who made this summer internship program successful.

Yaritza, pictured on the right, said, "My favorite part of my internship is not just being in an office all day. You get to walk around on the construction site and see how things work." Yaritza and Joshua (pictured left) were fortunate to have interned for Balfour Beatty, a construction company working on Long Beach Unified School District's new Richard D. Browning High School in Signal Hill. Their supervisor, Tony, was invested in their training, safety, and experience during their internship and each received their OSHA training certificate.

Business Partner Spotlight
The Port of Long Beach has been instrumental in supporting Long Beach CaLL's services to provide work-based learning experiences for students and teachers.

In June, the Port of Long Beach hosted and provided externships to sixteen teachers from Cabrillo High School's Academy of Global Logistics , a partnership between the Port of Long Beach and Long Beach Unified School District. The five day training program brings teachers out of the classroom and into the Port, and consists of discussions with industry experts, site visits, and collaborative group assignments.

In addition, the Port of Long Beach was a sponsor of the Summer Internship Reception held on August 23rd, that recognized the numerous interns that worked throughout Long Beach during summer 2017. Their support shows that they understand the importance of investing in the future workforce, which is evident through their own scholarship and internship programs.
Student Spotlight
At the Summer Internship Reception held on August 23rd, our student intern, Celeste (pictured right center), was one of many interns recognized for their participation in the Long Beach Internship Challenge.

Celeste gave an amazing and powerful speech describing her outlook on life and her dream of "helping her people and uniting this country." This summer, she interned for Long Beach Councilmember, Jeannine Pearce, and she reported that the experience broadened her knowledge regarding the resources available to the public.

Her final thought to the audience was, "don't lose hope." She knows there are a number of strong-minded individuals, many in the audience, who together will help create the more united country that she envisions.
