The MCSW is fortunate to have SEVEN remarkable interns this summer. Each of them brings their talent, skills and enthusiasm to the MSCW to assist staff in accomplishing a long list of projects.

Our interns are enthusiastic about advocating for women and girls, and helping one another. The diverse perspective of each intern continuously enriches staff. A short biography of each follows. Jessica (Jessie) Anderson is a rising junior at Tufts University. She quickly fell in to step with the other members of the office and is currently knee deep in research. Over the course of her summer internship she will coordinate the efforts of the Massachusetts Women’s Research Jessie Collaborative, and along with a fellow intern, conduct research on the status of women and girls in the Commonwealth’s Counties. At the end of her internship she will be leaving the MCSW and the U.S. for advanced studies abroad in Cape Town, South Africa.
