http://www.cornerstoneofhope.org/ Mark Kaplafka 216-236-5003 ext. 224 mkaplafka@cornerstoneofhope.org (Cleveland & Columbus offices/programs) Cornerstone of Hope exists because, in this life, the unthinkable sometimes happens. A child dies before his parents. A husband or wife dies, leaving their spouse and children at a loss for how to go on living. A student dies, leaving a school reeling over the shock and sorrow. In your loneliness, you desperately need to give hope and connect with those who understand. When we are left without the smile and the touch of the one whom we loved so dearly, we need a hand to hold, to pull us out of the pit and the pain. Cornerstone is one of the premiere training sites for undergraduate and graduate interns in the fields of social work, counseling and art therapy. Each intern typically carries a counseling caseload of 8-10 clients, and run one or two support groups per quarter. Interns receive a high level of clinical supervision, including one hour per week individual and two hours of group supervision. Slots fill up quickly and often a year in advance. Students interested in a field placement at this site should complete and submit an online application prior to contacting Mr. Kaplafka: http://cornerstoneofhope.org/fullpage/college-internship-program Cornerstone Wellness Center 120 W Washington St Suite B-2 Medina, OH 44256
