We wanted to let you know that we intend to continue accepting applications
for our spring semester 2010 Washington, D.C. internship programs until
December 4, 2009. Of course, we've informed students that they need to
confirm with your institution's campus liaison or sponsor that they can
still participate, but we hope that you'll be able to send any newly
interested candidates our way.
 
Hopefully, this extension will allow students to discuss the opportunity
with their families during the Thanksgiving break and will take some of the
pressure off those who were scrambling to submit all of their materials on
time. Of course, we will offer admission on a rolling basis, so prospective
interns should send their applications as soon as possible.
 
Please note that unfortunately we're unable to extend our deadline for the
Washington, D.C.-Sydney Internship Program or the U.S.-China Bilateral Trade
Internship Program. In addition, we're no longer able to accept
international students enrolled in colleges and universities abroad due to
the J-1 Visa process.
 
Students can also consider participating in our January seminar Inside
Washington '10 (www.twc.edu/insidewashington), as the deadline is December
9. Faculty members who bring 10 students from their institution can be hired
as faculty leaders to come with their group to Washington, DC and will
receive a stipend. For more information on Inside Washington '10, please
contact seminars@twc.edu.
 
As always, we appreciate your support and are available whenever you have
questions or concerns!

Open Internship at Urban ArtWorks: Grant research position		

Urban ArtWorks is a local non-profit that creates public art with art risk youth sent to us through the King County Court system. We rely on funding from foundations both private and public. To learn more about what we do visit www.urbanartworks.org

This position would be ideal for someone interested in art administration or fundraising and who has strong research and writing skills. Research will include seeking out grant opportunities, compiling a calendar of deadlines and contacts, and sometimes assisting in proof reading before the final grant is submitted. This could turn into a grant writing position, which is currently unpaid but a successful intern will be first to be considered when a paid position becomes available. 

This position would require up to 5 hours per week. 4 hours dedicated to research and ideally a 1 hour weekly staff meeting. We are not in need of someone in our office, so the 4 hours of research or editing can be done remotely. Candidate must have regular access to a computer with internet and word processing. We can provide a computer here, but our internet and office hours are spotty, so we prefer someone with their own access. 

Internship is available immediately and will be flexible during the Holidays. For more information, to send a resume or to come see our studio please contact 
Kathleen Warren at 206.292.4142 or Kathleen@urbanartworks.org.

  Several times a year, Jim McDermott offers unpaid internship
  opportunities in his Washington D.C. and Seattle offices to young
  people who are interested in seeing first-hand how our government works.
 
  An internship in Washington, D.C. provides an opportunity to work with
  a congressional staff, attend committee hearings and markups, observe
  the House in session, and learn about the daily operations of
  Congress, while enhancing an understanding of the legislative process
  and national issues. An internship in Seattle provides an opportunity
  to attend constituent meetings, learn about the legislative process,
  participate in constituent services, and experience the daily
  operations of a congressional district office.
 
  Because we receive more applications than the number of available
  positions, we encourage applicants to submit their information as
  early as possible. This allows either office the time to properly
  review applications and also affords time for those seeking a position
  in Washington DC to make the necessary housing and travel arrangements.
 
  Applicants must be an undergraduate or graduate college student who
  has completed at least one year of college and should posses an
  interest in the legislative process and in helping constituents, as
  well as strong writing and communication skills.
 
  If an applicant will be participating in a formal program directed by
  their school, we ask that they indicate what specific requirements the
  program would make of the office. If their school does not offer a
  formal intern program, they may wish to speak to an advisor about the
  possibility of receiving independent study credit for the internship.
 
  If you would like to be considered for a position, please submit to
  the appropriate office the following information as a complete packet:
 
     1. Cover letter explaining your interest,
     2. A current resume
     3. Letters of reference
     4. The Year and school term or the dates you are be available.

ABOUT COLLEGE PRO

College Pro Painters is a North American student painting company that offers residential painting services during summer months in local communities. Since 1971, we have been committed to providing our student franchise managers with a world-class leadership training program and small business management experience.  We have painted over 250,000 homes, developed over 10,000 Franchise Managers, 100,000 Painters, and completed charity work and community service in every US state and Canadian province where we operate.

Since 2004, student franchise managers and general managers have participated in charity events and donated services equating to over $760,000 to improve community spaces and housing in underprivileged areas across Canada and the United States. Many of these charitable projects occur during our student manager’s spring breaks, and have resulted in improving the quality of life for many people.  Our company’s core purpose ‘together, realizing potentials’ uniquely mentors and challenges students to become successful community leaders.

In 2006, we initiated a painter scholarship program.  The “working for humanity” scholarship was created in February of 2006, and is awarded to 3 Painters each summer.  The purpose of the scholarship is to send Painters to a third world country to volunteer their time so that they can help people in need. Furthermore, they can bring back their experience and learning to share with all of College Pro.  It is important to College Pro to help our Painters learn and grow as well as help others in need. 

Cross Cultural Solutions (CCS) is a non-profit organization that helps us facilitate the volunteer work. Once the Painter is selected, they simply get in touch with CCS and choose three things:  First, when they want to go; secondly, where they want to go; and lastly what type of volunteer work they desire. College Pro Painters pays for all of their expenses with CCS, including their flight, meals and accommodation. We also pay for their wages that they will not be earning while away. That way they can still volunteer and make some money to go back to school in the fall. 

In addition to the above, College Pro was a proud Gold sponsor and fund-raiser of Peter Oyler's Race Across America to support and raise funds for Kids Help Phone in Canada www.kidshelpphone.ca. Peter Oyler www.peteroyler.com is a multi-sport athlete and a seasoned adventure racer who competed in the race in June 2007, and plans to compete again in 2009.  The Race spans over 3,100 mile from coast to coast in the US and Peter finished it in 11 days and 4 hours in 2007.  We will again be a major sponsor for Peter and Kids Help Phone as he competes in 2009.   

We have also partnered with a number of like-minded organizations:  DECA (Distributive Education Clubs of America—the High School Division; and Delta Epsilon Chi Association-the College Division), an international association of high school and college students studying marketing, management and entrepreneurship in business, finance, hospitality and marketing sales and service.  We are also in partnership with SIFE (Students in Free Enterprise) and their Canadian counterpart ACE, which is an international network of student, academic and business leaders who have made a commitment to create a better world with better leaders—individuals who have the ability and are willing to put forth the effort to make a meaningful contribution to their communities, and are working together to improve the lives of others.  In addition, we have established partnerships with NACE (National Association of Colleges and Employers), CEO (Collegiate Entrepreneurs Organization), and PSE (Pi Sigma Epsilon—a professional sales organization for students).

We fervently believe in these organizations and feel that they too provide students with unmatched learning opportunities.

ABOUT THE MANAGER ROLE

College Pro provides students with exceptional management and leadership training that helps them to stand out NOW and in life after college.  It’s Real Life, Right Now.  

A College Pro Manager is a leader, an entrepreneur and a responsible business owner.  We are currently selecting people across North America who have the drive, ambition, and commitment to succeed—and we teach them how to get there.  

Our Franchise Managers have said: 

•	“I ran a business that employed 10 people and I was accountable for everything that we did.  I know what it’s like to have people rely on me for a pay check.”
•	“I developed and implemented a business plan.  I successfully managed both school and my business.”
•	“My marketing strategy generated leads and made it easier to sell services to my customers.”
•	“I learned to communicate with customers and to deliver what I promised.  I also had great customer feedback.”
•	“I discovered who I really was, found my strengths and weaknesses, put myself through challenges, gained self-confidence, and learned to expect more from myself.”

Wouldn’t that sound really good in an interview?  We have also provided a number of manager experience quotes within this packet, and can connect you directly with students who are and have been Franchise Managers with us.  

Successful Managers can:

•	Learn how to run a business
•	Learn and use managerial and business skills that will serve them long after the summer ends in any future career
•	Gain a proven track record and real world business experience
•	Be financially rewarded for their hard work
•	Have fun and build a lifelong network of like-minded people

We train and mentor our managers in all aspects of running their business; each manager works one on one with a coach who is responsible for helping him/her achieve success.  We believe in learning by doing.  Managers gain hands-on experience with:

•	Serving customers:  marketing, meeting, estimating, contracts, quality work
•	Managing employees and painters:  hiring, training, managing job sites
•	Being responsible:  collecting money, payroll, tracking profitability

What students can learn as a College Pro Franchise Manager will serve them long after the summer ends.

•	Leadership and Communication
•	Business Organization and Planning
•	Financial Management
•	Marketing and Sales
•	Customer Relations
•	Interviewing and Hiring
•	Training and Coaching

We’ve spent more than 35 years teaching students to run successful businesses, and support all of our Franchise Managers with the skills, tools, and technology to help them succeed.  Training leaders and managers to run effective small to medium-sized businesses is one of our core competencies.  

Our training takes place on weekends during the winter and spring months so as not to interfere with the students’ school schedule. We follow up our classroom training with work in the field.  Our full-time General Managers (who were all franchisees while they were students) work with our franchisees by going into the field on their first estimates to coach them, as well as visit the franchisees and painters in the field in the summer. On top of that, our franchise managers have weekly phone meetings with the GM to consult on their business.

Project Vote Smart is a national, non-partisan, non-profit political
research library located in the Montana Rockies. The Project was founded by
former US Presidents Carter and Ford, as well as 40 other prominent national
leaders of both major political parties and funded by the Carnegie and Ford
Foundations. The New York Times said that ?Project Vote Smart is so good
that even the Federal Government recommends it.?
 
We are currently accepting applications for our Fall and Winter National
Internship Program. This is an especially great opportunity for recent
graduates. This year we are excited to announce our new online application
system where students can now submit their applications completely
electronically, expediting the review and acceptance process! To apply
online or to get more information about Project Vote Smart, please visit
www.votesmart.org.  I hope you will look over our website and forward our
information to any interested students. Please let me know if you have any
questions.
 
Thanks to the generous support of our members across the country, we are
once again able to offer the Barry Goldwater scholarship to all accepted
students. This scholarship provides room and board for the duration of the
student?s 10 week internship at our headquarters, the Great Divide Ranch in
Montana.
 
Through our internships, your students will have a unique opportunity to be
involved with the political process, while enjoying one of the most
spectacular places on earth. Our internship will give your students the
chance to provide millions of people with factual, unbiased information, as
well as the opportunity to stroll around pristine lakes and rivers, hike
throughout the Rocky Mountains, or ski some of the best slopes in the
country. During an internship with Project Vote Smart, students will work
hard and learn a great deal, all in an environment defined by its beautiful
scenery and the commitment of its staff and interns.
 
Our internships, as with all the other areas of the organization, focus on
the end product: providing voters with pertinent, factual information on
presidential, congressional, gubernatorial, and state legislative candidates
and elected officials. For students, this means a hands-on internship with
significant opportunities for learning and growth. In fact, more than 90
percent of the information that Project Vote Smart provides is researched,
entered, and checked by interns and volunteers. This system has been
developed and cultivated specifically to ensure that interns are primarily
responsible for the research; the few staff members are here simply to train
and guide interns in what needs to be accomplished.

       first-hand look at how a legacy media company like CBS
       News is using social media. We?re not looking for engineers

target audiences.

equipment and procedures, through readings and independent research. The

workshops, tutorials, and technical support of equipment. The intern learns
to interpret and enforce policies, train other student workers, becomes
proficient at using the online reservation system to check-in/out equipment
and manage equipment inventory, carry out general maintenance and minor
repair of equipment, and may perform related duties as required. We strongly
value the addition of new ideas and perspectives and we encourage each

Project Vote Smart is a national, non-partisan, non-profit political
research library located in the Montana Rockies. The Project was founded
by former US Presidents Carter and Ford, as well as 40 other prominent
national leaders of both major political parties and funded by the
Carnegie and Ford Foundations. The New York Times said that "Project
Vote Smart is so good that even the Federal Government recommends it."
 
We are currently accepting applications for our National Internship
Program. This year we are excited to announce our new online application
system where students can now submit their applications completely
electronically, expediting the review and acceptance process! To apply
online or to get more information about Project Vote Smart, please visit
*www.votesmart.org *.  I hope you will look
over our website and forward our information to any interested students.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
 
Thanks to the generous support of our members across the country, we are
once again able to offer the Barry Goldwater scholarship to all accepted
students. This scholarship *provides room and board* for the duration of
the student's 10 week internship at our headquarters, the Great Divide
Ranch in Montana.
 
Through our internships, your students will have a unique opportunity to
be involved with the political process, while enjoying one of the most
spectacular places on earth. Our internship will give your students the
chance to provide millions of people with factual, unbiased information,
as well as the opportunity to stroll around pristine lakes and rivers,
hike throughout the Rocky Mountains, or ski some of the best slopes in
the country. During an internship with Project Vote Smart, students will
work hard and learn a great deal, all in an environment defined by its
beautiful scenery and the commitment of its staff and interns.
 
Our internships, as with all the other areas of the organization, focus
on the end product: providing voters with pertinent, factual information
on presidential, congressional, gubernatorial, and state legislative
candidates and elected officials. For students, this means a hands-on
internship with significant opportunities for learning and growth. In
fact, more than 90 percent of the information that Project Vote Smart
provides is researched, entered, and checked by interns and volunteers.
This system has been developed and cultivated specifically to ensure
that interns are primarily responsible for the research; the few staff
members are here simply to train and guide interns in what needs to be
accomplished.
 
Please ask your students to consider this opportunity and contact me
with any questions at 1-888-VOTESMART (1-888-868-3762) or via email at
intern@votesmart.org . I look forward to
working together to provide your students with an unforgettable learning
experience.

Greetings from the Center for Communication and Civic Engagement at the 
University of Washington!
 
We wanted to remind you of a great opportunity available to UW undergrads 
interested in the use of online digital media to enhance youth civic education 
and  political participation. The Center for Communication and Civic Engagement 
is offering a course titled Becoming Citizens this quarter. It is a course 
designed to cover the major theoretical issues surrounding youth civic 
engagement in the digital age while giving undergraduate students hands-on 
experience working on youth civic engagement projects as interns in community 
organizations.
 
The course can be taken for credit through the Political Science or 
Communication Departments and can also be taken for Education credits through 
Inner Pipeline. The course description follows. Please contact Amanda 
Ballantyne (acball@u.washington.edu) for more details.
 
---
 
Becoming Citizens Course Description: Are you interested in helping to get 
local youth involved in politics? Do you have ideas about how we can capitalize 
on the power of digital media to enhance and encourage youth political 
participation? Do you wonder how youth can develop the ability to participate 
as empowered members in civil society?
 
Participants in "Becoming Citizens" will be introduced to the latest 
scholarship on trends in youth political participation, and on various youth 
civic engagement strategies. Students will also choose an internship placement 
in the greater Seattle area: either in a high school classroom or a community 
non-profit non-profit organization engaging in youth civic engagement work. 
These internships will allow you to relate the themes discussed in the weekly 
seminar to your actual experiences in the community, as you work directly with 
civic education among youth.
 
Interns in classrooms will assist teachers with the integration of digital 
media projects into the standard curriculum. Students in community 
organizations will help youth plan and carry out an issue-driven project using 
digital media. Participants will also have opportunities to discuss their 
experiences in seminar, and in their final reflection paper at the end of the 
quarter. For anyone who has a desire to contribute to the political empowerment 
of youth, we highly recommend this course.
 
Dates: Thursdays; 4/2, 4/9, 4/16, 4/23, 4/30, 5/7, 5/14, 5/21, 5/28
Time: 5:00 - 6:00 pm

Breakthrough Institute Seeks Nation's
Top Young Thought Leaders for Paid Summer Fellowship
 
The Breakthrough Institute, a public policy think tank, is seeking up to
ten of the country's top young writers and thought leaders for a paid
fellowship in summer 2009 as part of its young leaders initiative,
Breakthrough Generation.  Fellowships are highly competitive -- in 2008,
10 percent of applicants were accepted -- and involve cutting-edge
writing, research, and analysis on energy/climate, national security,
the economy, health care, and other issues.  Previous Breakthrough
Fellows have published in the Harvard Law & Policy Review, San Francisco
Chronicle, Baltimore Sun, Huffington Post, and Alternet.
 
In 2009, Fellows have a unique opportunity to be closely involved with
the Breakthrough Institute. Over the next year, Breakthrough will work
to seize today's historic moment to establish a new era of progressive
governance that prioritizes major, long-term government investments in
clean energy technology innovation, as well as a new social contract.
But major obstacles lie ahead, including severe economic recession and
an unpredictable global landscape. To seize the moment, our leaders will
need bold ideas backed by sharp thinking and clear analysis.
 
The Breakthrough Institute has a history of reinventing older political
paradigms with big ideas. In 2002, Breakthrough co-founded the Apollo
Alliance and the New Apollo Project for clean energy, which
President-elect Obama recently said is his number one priority alongside
stabilizing the economy. We succeed by tapping cutting-edge progressive
thinking, sharp analysis, and superb communication to create and advance
ideas capable of achieving the broad social and ecological
transformations America and the world need.
 
Fellowships pay $300 per week and are awarded to individuals aged 18-25
who will be closely involved with Breakthrough's high-level work.
Activities and projects include writing short articles and op-eds,
researching and writing policy white papers, and conducting interviews
with the nation's top political and policy experts. Fellows will work 40
hours per week for ten weeks during Summer 2009 from Breakthrough's
central office in Oakland, CA.
 
Breakthrough believes effective political movements emerge out of strong
communities, and Fellows will be encouraged to join a special three-day
camping retreat during the summer, as well as other social events.
Selected Fellows are expected to attend a two-day introduction summit
during a weekend in late April or early May, 2009, for which all travel
expenses will be covered.
 
To apply, submit a cover letter, resume or CV, and three writing samples
to fellowship@thebreakthrough.org.  Applications are due by 5:00PM PST
on March 15th, 2009.  Writing samples should include at least one
op-ed-style piece and one research paper (these do not have to be
published).  Personal recommendations are welcomed but not required.
For more information, contact Teryn Norris at teryn@thebreakthrough.org
 .

The inauguration of President-elect Barack Obama on January 20, 2009, marks a new period of hope and opportunity - a time for all of us, regardless of party affiliation, to think about how we can help change our nation for the better.
 
In that spirit, MWW Group has launched a national campaign to answer two questions: What Change Are You Ready For In The First 100 Days? What Can You Do To Bring About This Change?
 
The campaign is timed to coincide with the inauguration of Barack Obama as 44th President of the United States. MWW Group is conducting a nationwide search to find both an organization and an individual that intend to effect positive change within the first 100 days of the Obama administration. In essence, we are asking for “100 Words for 100 Days.� 100-word written and video submissions will be gathered at www.mww.com/change  .
 
The winning organization will receive three months of pro bono PR service from MWW Group, amounting to $30,000 worth of assistance to help them spread their message of change. The winning individual will earn a $5,000 paid internship at any of MWW Group’s 10 offices, where they will learn the PR skills necessary to help them realize their goal.
 
The purpose of this initiative is to challenge America to think about how we can all make a difference. MWW Group encourages you to contribute your thoughts and make a statement of change.

About Brave New World Inc:
Brave New World, Inc. is a multi-faceted entertainment company that includes records, music/film production, marketing, publishing and management divisions. The company’s President/CEO, Shyan Selah, is not only the top executive, but also an artist who’s made it a mandate to immerse his company into the global community, highlighting social issues all over the world. Locally Brave New World has been involved in numerous community activities including speaking and appearing at schools and colleges in the area as well as the production of the annual Black History Project, a musical community concert event that takes place every February in honor of Black History Month.

About Shyan Selah:
Shyan Selah is a true artist whose goal is to create an urban music crusade in a world where much of urban music has become at best stagnant and at worst soulless. He’s spent years shrewdly navigating the music industry and has gained the respect of major industry leaders and insiders simply by conveying this simple message: Be Brave, a concept that applies to Shyan not just as an artist, but also as the President and CEO of Brave New World. In 2008 Shyan sealed a new label-to-label deal with KOCH Entertainment to release his premiere album, Brave New World. A mixture of funk, rock, soul and R&B, the album has the uniqueness of combining the most unexpected content with distinctive and soulful tracks. Brave New World is available everywhere September 16th, 2008 and also features the breakout singles, “Hollywood Blvd,” which was featured in the CBS/Paramount drama, Numb3rs, and “Soul Music: The Anthem.” Both are available through various online music retail stores.

A small group of twelve participants will meet twice monthly (approx. two hours each mtg.) to discuss how they imagine and define community and their relationship to different communities and/or public spaces in Seattle. The research staff will teach basic photography techniques and how to use photography as a tool for critical reflection – both personal and social – as well as a tool for promoting community dialogue. From January to May, discussions will form the basis for photography assignments (decided by the participants) that will, in turn, feed and direct the following discussions. This process will culminate in a collaboratively produced community photography exhibit in June 2009. This exhibit will be designed to promote public dialogue about a range of themes in regards to visuality and GLBTQ politics and culture.

•	Coordinating film development and printing
•	Copying

This study takes place between January-June, 2009 and requires commitment for the entire six months with the possibility of additional time/credit through August 2009.  

The work schedule is flexible other than attending most of the twice-monthly discussion meetings with study participants. These meetings will be off campus on Capitol Hill or the University District likely in late afternoon/early evening hours.

Edmonds-based corporation needing Web design Help (seeking an intern)
I'm looking for someone to recreating my website based partially on my vision, but grounded in the site's necessities. This help could come in the form of an internship, or side project. 

Basically, I need it to be visually cleaner. It doesn't need to have bells-and-whistles on it (though it would be nice). But, it needs to position the things that are vital to our business in a much more assessable way. It also needs to be built in a way in which updates (text and photos) can be made by me or anyone on my staff (in other words, some one who doesn't really understand coding-but has a grasp of up-and-downloading).
 
I think the general needs could easily be accomplished by someone who can build sites within days. It would be great to work with someone who can make sure we can self-maintain and sustain it with a web-building guru. For, I think s/he would have time to add a few bells and whistles (flash / animation).

2009 NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC MAGAZINE PHOTOGRAPHY INTERNSHIPS

The National Geographic Magazine will offer two photography internships
during the summer or fall of 2009.  The program is an opportunity for young
photographers to experience first-hand the rigors of life in the professional world.  It is also an opportunity for us at the Geographic to scrutinize the work of those in whom we may have further interest.  We are proud that many of our regular “shooters” are former summer interns.

One internship is automatically offered to the winner of the College Photographer of the Year contest administered by the University of Missouri, Columbia.  For information, go to www.cpoy.org.

The other internship is awarded based on a portfolio.  It is primarily for college students – undergraduate or graduate—but we will also consider someone not currently in school.  The purpose of the internship is experience and encouragement to those who aspire to be a photojournalist. Interns must be at least 21 years of age and U.S. citizens, or have appropriate student work documents.

Both internships are for fourteen weeks at a salary of $480 a week.  When on assignment away from the city, the Geographic pays all expenses. Transportation expenses to and from Washington at the start and conclusion
of the internship are covered by the Society.  The interns are responsible for their own housing.

To apply, send us a portfolio of recent work (no more than 30 images), a resume, and a letter of recommendation from a photography teacher or established photojournalist.  We are interested in strong photojournalism and your ability to produce a visual narrative.  We will also consider an aspiring studio photographer.  CDs are the preferred method of submission
but portfolios may also be in the form of slides, prints or clippings of any combination, in color and/or black and white.  Digital images should be sized to approximately 1600 wide, 72 dpi.

All portfolios must be postmarked no later than January 31, 2009.  Send to Susan Smith, Deputy Director of Photography, National Geographic Magazine, 1145 17th Street, NW, Washington, DC 20036.  

Please clearly label your envelope, “NGM Photography Internship” and if you would like for us to
return your portfolio, you must include a self-addressed stamped envelope.

About the League
 
The Municipal League is a volunteer-driven, nonpartisan, nonprofit

The League’s mission is to promote government that is open, effective
and accountable, and to improve the caliber of public officials and
the quality of public decisions.
 
The League pursues its mission through the following programs:
 
• Candidate Evaluation Committee (CEC). Each CEC conducts the
equivalent of a job interview with candidates for public office
throughout King County and rates them on their capacity to serve
effectively.
• Ballot Measures. Every election a team of citizens come
together the review and make recommendations on measures facing King
County voters. The results are distributed via the League's Web site.
• Monitoring Local Government. In concert with its sister
organization, the Municipal League Foundation, the League monitors a
range of issues at the local level.
• Civic Awards. The League recognizes accomplishments of
elected officials, public employees, other citizen groups, the news
media, and individual citizens who make outstanding contributions to
the community and better government.
 
The Municipal League is looking for three organized and energetic
individuals to work as interns assigned to one of our three issue
study committees.
 
Each intern will act as an assistant to the organization’s Director
and to a League public policy Study Committee (This internship
provides experience in both non-profit program administration and
local public policy.) See below for description of each Study
Committee focus.
 
This is an outstanding learning opportunity for those looking to gain
experience in local government, public policy and nonprofit management.

possible extensions.

Some of the above time will be spent attending the meetings, writing
and distributing minutes of the meetings to the chair and committee
members and ensuring the committee members have all necessary study
materials for each meeting. Meetings are held every 3-4 weeks in and
around Seattle.

Approximately 6-8 hours per week are spent assisting the League’s
Study Committee in managing research materials, creating archives and
researching topics upon request. The other time is spent preparing
for the next meeting, and other duties as assigned.
Most of the work can be done remotely although some time will be
required in the Municipal League office. Some administrative office
duties may be requested as well, if time permits.

Start date for this internship is November, 2008. (exact start date
is negotiable)

There is a $300 stipend for this internship payable at the end of the

necessary internship requirements for credit.
The ideal candidates are highly motivated and can work
independently. Each must be interested in learning more about
nonprofit organizations and local civic engagement and public policy
issues.
 
This internship is a great opportunity to interact with key community
leaders, public and elected officials and leaders in the legal and
business community, learn invaluable skills about the operations of a
small sized non-profit, and do meaningful work to improve our local
community.
