Thomas E. McMahon Co-op Award – Maria Graceffa

Headshot of Maria Graceffa

Maria Graceffa graduated in May 2008 with a Human Services and Psychology Double Major from the College of Arts and Sciences. She completed three co-ops, her senior internship, and earned a Thomas E. McMahon Co-op Award for her devotion to serving the community. From the day she entered my door to talk about co-op, she was focused and enthusiastic about giving back to the community and learning about the counseling field.

She completed the following co-ops:

  • Bay State Community Services: Granite House Milieu Staff Member
  • CASCAP, Inc.: Green Street Program Interim Residential Counselor
  • Bay State Community Services: Granite House Family Therapy Co-op
  • McLean Hospital: ADATP Research Co-op (on mental illness)
