Internships

The Bucks County Juvenile Probation Department offers internships to college students majoring in an appropriate field. Through our internship program, students will be submersed in the day-to-day activities of both Intake Probation Officers and Line Probation Officers, offering a diversified experience that covers all aspects of Juvenile Probation. Our hope is that, through internship, students will be supplied with the experience and knowledge necessary to be successful in their education, as well as their careers in Criminal Justice.
