California Health Corps

wants YOU ETA does not want you unless you're licensed. Despite what they EXPLICITLY STATE ON THEIR OWN SITE, complete with assorted categories of unlicensed people on their own application. Alas.

I suspect that an intern MFT not currently affiliated with any organization and not willing to travel out of LA is going to be extremely low on their call-up list, but you never know.

(Normally I'd travel. In this case, it's too risky for my cats as I live alone and there's no guarantee a cat-sitter could get to them in case of emergency, as they might be totally locked down or sick themselves. This is an issue, like many right now, that I never imagined coming up in all the bazillion hours I've devoted to imagining disasters.)

However, if anyone ever bothers to look at my application, they'll see that in addition to my four years of clinical experience and eleven as a crisis counselor, I've also deployed with the Red Cross. Admittedly, that was exactly twenty years ago. But still. At the very least, it shows willing.
