Sponsored by the AED Foundation and in partnership with Northern Kane County Region 110, Alignment hosted its 2025 Internship Host Recognition Breakfast on December 4 at Bartlett Hills Golf Club. More than 50 organizations were celebrated for providing 243 students with paid internships, over 13,000 hours of real-world experience, and a $700,000 community return. 

Various speakers highlighted the powerful impact of internships on career readiness and workforce development. With a goal of placing 300 students in Summer 2026, we invite businesses to join us as host sites. Interested? Contact: ace@align4edu.net; efe.stirn@central301.net. ace@align4edu.net
