Jackie Koenig Memorial Internship Fund

Jackie Koenig was the Consumer Voice's first Communications Director who later became director of the National Long-Term Care Ombudsman Resource Center. As a treasured friend and co-worker, one of Jackie's many passions was mentoring new people in gerontology, a practice she began in the 1980s when she served as a local ombudsman in Ohio and as a member of the Consumer Voice's Board of Directors. She was passionate about her advocacy work and did not hesitate to pass on her enthusiasm to the many interns she had been privileged to tutor. For this reason, family and friends decided to honor Jackie's legacy by establishing a special fund to support the Jackie Koenig Memorial Internship Program.  Jackie passed in 1998, but the memories of her unique brand of advocacy live on. Throughout the year, students and recent graduates are selected to serve as interns at the Consumer Voice. Staff rely heavily on the support of interns to complete important advocacy and policy work, and the students likewise gain valuable, real-world experience.
