The Audre Lorde Project (501c3) is currently receiving applications for summer interns. Internships are open to undergraduate, graduate and recent graduates as well as anyone who is interested in working in a specific program area for a minimum of three months.
Interns will gain hands on experience working with a Center for LGBTST People of Color Communities. Internships are structured to provide students with a high amount of responsibility and challenging work. Although staff will provide guidance and supervision, interns will be able to contribute to the direction of the program area they work on. ALP internships are structured to be mutually beneficial to both the student and the organization. Interns will be accountable to their work plan and their responsibilities. Interns will take part in consensus decision making processes and help shape group goals.
