Jefferson County Internship Consortium (JCIC) is a full-time psychology doctoral internship that offers doctoral interns a unique blend of experiences and trainings to support preparing future psychologists for public health sector. Our consortium consists of several agencies including Centerstone of Kentucky (Community Mental Health Center), Uspriritus (Adolescent Residential Facility), Kentucky Correctional Psychiatric Center (Prison Hospital), and Central State Hospital (Adult State Hospital).
