School’s out! It’s officially summer and, while most college students are winding down from a year of exams, projects, and intense study, we’re honored to welcome a new class of interns, affectionately called “Hatchterns.” Eager to further their skills at Hatcher, each intern brings a variety of experiences and expertise that align with our mission-driven focus and passion for healthy communities that leave no one behind.
Here, our 2022 Summer Hatchterns share what they’re most excited about or hope to learn from their internship experience.
