Orange County Insight July 2022

Recognizing Orange County ’ s Interns National Intern Day will be recognized on Thursday, July 28, 2022. Interns are valuable members of the Orange County team. They contribute new ideas and facilitate additional programs while gaining experience in public service. Some Orange County interns have moved on to permanent positions in our departments, while others have taken the skills sharpened here and applied them in other localities or private businesses. Regardless, their service is appreciated. Highlighted below are two (2) interns currently helping expand Orange County activities.
