The Fordham Graduate School of Service’s 100+ years in operation have allowed us to establish strong partnerships that benefit our Master of Social Work (MSW) students and the surrounding community. These partnerships often supply our students with invaluable internships that not only prepare them for the workforce but also result in jobs after graduation.
Abilis is one such organization. In this video, see how three Fordham MSW alumni have turned their Abilis field internships into full-time positions, including Amy Montimurro, GSS ’08, who now serves as Abilis’ CEO. We also hear from an MSW student currently interning at Abilis, learning how the organization empowers everyone on staff from day one to make an impact.
Community partnerships and field education are crucial elements of a student’s experience. At Fordham GSS, we provide the hands-on training and networking opportunities that will set you up for career success as a social worker. Learn more about our field education opportunities here.
