Opportunities for Student Engagement

The P4CBP identifies and integrates each student's unique skills and perspectives into real world projects that directly impact Ohio's communities.  We create a supportive environment for students to explore their academic and professional interests while contributing to the disciplines of behavioral health promotion and substance abuse prevention.  We also foster reciprocal learning experiences, whereby students and mentors grow as professionals.  We value the passion, creativity, and innovation that students bring to our work and workplace.

 


We believe in the power of collaboration. As part of the P4CBP team, OHIO students have opportunities to engage in meaningful work and professional development that helps prepare them for future endeavors after their time on campus is complete. We are grateful for the contributions of our students and their passion for learning.

I think that working in prevention is a great way for students to work towards social change by promoting health and inclusion.  This job is a prime learning opportunity and a way to gain experience in the field. If you are someone who cares about the health and well-being of others, this is the right job for you!
 

Ijeoma Idika-Chima, MA, C.CHW, RA - MSW Fieldwork Intern 2023-2024


As an MSW Fieldwork Intern, I worked on two projects. The Strategic Prevention Framework Partnerships for Success Communities of Practice in Southeast Ohio (SPF-PFS in SEO), and The Community of Practice Rural Community Opioid Response Program (CoP- RCORP). My role was to coordinate and facilitate a sustainability plan training and sustainability planning process with two community-based coalitions focused on substance misuse and underage drinking prevention among youths in Adams and Lawrence counties. My second role was to conceptualize and develop a health promotion communication plan audience assessment tool to expand the HRSA National Maternal Mental Health Campaign on postpartum depression hotline access for women in Ashtabula, Sandusky, Seneca, and Fairfield Counties in State of Ohio.
