Since its inception more than 20 years ago, Concordia's ground-breaking interdisciplinary course on HIV/AIDS has offered students internships within local groups. Students can see the direct impact of policy on the lives of people living with HIV. They also better understand the pressures on groups that meet those needs while juggling the difficulties of evaluating programs, securing funding and meeting the changing needs of a variety of populations. This program requires ongoing outreach and planning with dozens of community organizations and projects. We will discuss how the process of placing students and supporting their involvement has been refined over the years.
