of the community. One way through which DBH has been able to assist
members of the community is to provide internship and practicum
opportunities for students in Social Work programs at accredited
universities. DBH is an approved placement site for several colleges
and universities, including, but not limited to Weber State
University, University of Utah, Utah State University, University of
Southern California (USC), University of North Dakota, and Boise

bachelor of social work (BSW) master of social work (MSW) degree,
and students enrolled in a psychiatric nurse practitioner program.
DBH also works with the University of Utah and A.T. Still university
for psychiatrist resident placements.
Students are required to provide DBH with all of the contact
information for the practicum advisor at your academic institution
so that we can determine if we are able to meet the requirements as

and obligations to be a field supervisor.
Practicum/internship opportunities at DBH are competitive so
that we can not only provide the highest quality educational
experience to our interns, but also ensure that they are a good fit
for DBH as the agency historically offers employment to many interns
upon graduation.
