The Mennonite Central Committee Washington Office invites applications from prospective interns. Internships allow students and recent graduates to learn about the legislative issues that form the basis for MCC’s work in Washington and to participate in all aspects of office life and work.
More information is here. Applications for fall 2010 internships will be reviewed starting July 15.
To apply for an internship, please send an email to mccwash@mcc.org with the following information:
A cover letter that includes:
- several paragraphs outlining your goals for the internship (and, if applicable, any connection with MCC or an Anabaptist congregation or school)
- dates and how many hours/week you are available during that time;
- whether your interest is in the domestic or international internship.
A copy of your resumé, along with names and contact information for two references.
Writing sample.
Please note that the MCC Washington Office is only able to provide a modest contribution for internships, generally enough to cover the cost of local transportation.
Possible fall 2010 projects include: working on databases of church and congressional contacts, promotion of MCC Washington resources, and some policy work on topics such as the environment, immigration, health care, Haiti, Colombia and/or Afghanistan. This list is subject to change.
