[behaviormed] Student Help

[mccormic at simmons.edu]

Michael,
Thank you very much for responding to my "student help" email.  Ive  
been emailing anyone I can get contact information for and have not  
had much luck in these two states.  Do you have any suggestions for  
specific clinics/hospital in these two states? Every hospital or  
clinic I look at for employment oppurtunities do not seem to offere  
anything close to what I am looking for.  Thank you again for your  
help, its comforting to know there are places that I can look into.
Sincerely,
Jenn
