Each summer, the American Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD) hosts a summer internship program in Washington, DC for students with all types of disabilities.
AAPD’s Summer Internships Program offers college students, law students, and other graduate and professional students with disabilities the opportunity to work in public service for ten weeks on Capitol Hill and at federal agencies. This ten-week experience gives interns the opportunity to gain invaluable hands-on experience in government, including insight into government office operations, public policy development, law-making and research, and constituents’ roles in the legislative and administrative processes. Interns receive a stipend, travel to and from DC, and fully-accessible housing.
The 2011 AAPD Washington DC Summer Internships Program for Students with Disabilities is generously sponsored by Walmart, the Mitsubishi Electric America Foundation (MEAF) and the HSC Foundation.
Applications must be received by 5:00 PM (Eastern Standard Time) on or before Monday, January 24, 2011.
