Interns will be writing for several different media channels, including letters to the editor, blog posts, social media, instructional material, letters to elected officials, and other community leaders. Through direct outreach, interns will play a key role in coalition-building and public education. This will include working collaboratively with organizations such as student groups; ACLU; NAACP; Catholic Conference; PA Council of Churches; and political and social justice organizations. In addition, interns will be involved in all aspects of our virtual events.

This internship program is fully remote using Zoom. The tentative program length is from Feb 1 to May 7, but we will accommodate student schedules.

Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis – we encourage you to submit your materials as soon as possible. Students should consult with academic faculty to determine if this unpaid experience will earn credit.

Requirements:

• Reliability
• Strong writing skills
• Ability to manage multiple projects
• Ability to work individually and as part of a team
• Ability to craft messaging for specific audiences
• Must be able to respond quickly to breaking news

We are committed to the development of interns and strive to provide an outstanding learning experience. PADP is an Equal Opportunity Employer and does not provide sponsorship.
