    1. The number of positions available will be based on supervisor availability, both with regard to the number of interns as well as the time constraints on the supervisor’s position.
    2. The Center reserves the right to request interviews and determine the appropriate match. the Center may refuse intern candidates or recommend another placement if available.
    3. Due to Center rules and regulations, interns will not be assigned individual caseloads. Interns will be working under the supervision of an TCC employee to assist with case management and other treatment/intervention activities.
    4. The Center reserves the right to terminate an internship at any time during assignment.
    5. TCC does not discriminate in any of the services or practices in which it provides. All intern candidates will be subject to mandatory background checks prior to placement.
