Quotes

Commitment to Social Justice

For me it is very important to feel connected and heard in a workplace. I have solidified my human service career at LUK because I truly feel that the agency’s sense of direction and values resonate with my drive and commitment to social justice and the empowerment of all individuals and communities.

Work While Pursuing a Degree

I was an Urban Youth Collaborative (UYC) intern in 2016. After my internship, I worked in the same department and I currently work at LUK as a Career Development Coordinator. I had a great experience with the internship as it allowed me to improve my skills in the field, collaborate with peers who had similar goals, and gave me the opportunity to work in an organization while getting my degree.

I am very fortunate to work at LUK. My career at LUK began as a mentor, then as a case manager, and worked my way up to a supervisory role within the foster care department. LUK is continuing to grow as an agency and is a great place for you to grow in your chosen career. The staff at LUK are committed to helping the children and families they serve in a variety of settings. I found my home at LUK.
