Program & Research Intern
The MCSW seeks responsible, conscientious, and pro-active individuals with a sincere interest in policy, social justice, civic engagement, and general legislative issues that impact all women and girls. Applicants should demonstrate strong writing and organizational skills and should be willing to take initiative for new assignments and be able to work well autonomously and in a group setting. Applicants should be motivated, open-minded, and have a positive attitude around others. While interns are encouraged to suggest which position they are interested in undertaking, they will not be limited to a particular area as many of our tasks are collaborative in nature. All interns are required to attend weekly staff meetings, events as needed, and check-ins with their direct supervisor on a regular basis.
