The Jewish Occupational
Intern (JOIN) program,
reborn after a seven-year
hiatus, is providing Jewish
college students with a
chance to learn about com-
munal needs while trying out
potential careers at Jewish
agencies.
"More than 100 students
applied for the 15 available
summer internships this
year," said program director
Debra Silver, who added that
the placements are in the
areas of communications, ad-
ministration, research, pro-
gram development and
human services.
Project JOIN had been suc-
cessfully operated by Jewish
Vocational Service from 1974
through 1980 with initial fun-
ding from the Max M. Fisher
Jewish Community. Founda-
tion of United Jewish
Charities, and subsequently
through the agency's alloca-
tion from the Jewish Welfare
Federation.
In addition to their four-day
work week, the students are
required to attend a weekly
seminar. Organized by the
JVS staff, they include in-
depth educational discussions
of the history, and current
and future problems, of the
Jewish community.
Seth Himelhoch, a
sophomore at Brandeis
University, expressed his
delight with the program: "I
feel very fortunate to have
been placed at Borman Hall
(Jewish Home for Aged). This
was my first choice, and I
can't imagine not having
something to do with Borman
Hall after the internship is
over."
Fran Cook, a program coor-
dinator for adult day services
and for developmentally
disabled adults at JVS, was a
Project JOIN student in 1979.

She had just received her
bachelor's degree when she
heard about the program
from an article in The Jewish
News. "When I began my in-
ternship, I was unfamiliar
with JVS and not really in-
volved in the Jewish com-
munity . . . Through Project
JOIN, I learned about the
agency and became active in
several communal organiza-
tions."
Cook is currently supervis-
ing Rena Glaser, a Project
JOIN student who is now
thinking about a career in
special education as a result
of her work at JVS. "It's a
special feeling for someone
who came here as an intern,
and fell in love with the agen-
cy, to be supervising another
young student," said Cook.
Jewish Welfare Federation
agencies that are par-
ticipating include the Jewish
Community Center, Jewish
Family Service, Jewish
Federation Apartments,
Jewish Home for Aged,
Jewish Vocational Service
and United Hebrew Schools,
as well as Federation itself
and the Jewish Association
for Retarded Citizens.
In addition to employing
Project JOIN students,
Federation, together with the
University of Michigan, has
inaugurated an internship
program which will help train
graduate students for the
growing field of Jewish com-
munal service.
"We hope this program will
be mutually beneficial to
Federation and the students,"
said executive director
Michael Berke, who , noted
that Federation's first intern,
Shelley Milin, has made the
transition from part-time in-
tern to full-time professional.
As staff associate, Milin
directs the Business and Pro-
