The Native American Congressional Internship offers a summer internship for Native American and Alaska Native students who wish to learn more about the federal government and issues affecting Indian country.
Interns work in congressional and agency offices where they have opportunities to research legislative issues important to tribal communities, network with key public officials and tribal advocacy groups, experience an insider's view of the federal government, and enhance their understanding of nation-building and tribal self-governance.
The internship will take place from May 29 - August 2, 2019.
Applicants must be Native Americans or Alaska Natives who:
- Are college juniors or seniors, recent graduates from 2 or 4-year colleges, graduate students, or law students
- Have demonstrated an interest in fields related to tribal public policy, such as tribal governance, tribal law, Native American education, Native American health, Native American justice, natural resource protection, cultural preservation and revitalization, and Native American economic development
The internship is fully funded. The foundation provides round-trip airfare, housing, per diem for food and incidentals, and a $1,200 educational stipend.
Links to additional guidance and the application materials are available on the program website.
