Westchester County Government

This summer, I interned with Westchester County Executive Kenneth Jenkins, an experience that gave me a closer look at how local government works and the many ways it impacts people’s lives.

One of the most meaningful parts of my internship was leading Park and Read, a program that brought local politicians into parks to read with kids, many from underserved communities. It was a great way to combine literacy, community, and civic engagement in a fun setting.
