Our mission is to empower young changemakers committed to public service. Our summer internship program for students ages 16-24 cultivates the skills and passion needed to address pressing societal challenges. Interns will have the opportunity to work closely with our team and government partners to develop and implement and or support community programs. Students will gain hands-on experience in public service, community engagement, and program development while making a positive impact on the community.
