National Office Internships: eligibility & how to apply

Who can apply?

• The ACLU National Office internship page describes student opportunities, but each opening controls education and other eligibility requirements.
• National-office and state-affiliate opportunities are separate; follow the employer named on the opening.
• A stipend may be offset by outside funding, so review the selected internship's written terms.

Dates, pay & program timing

The ACLU describes year-round remote and hybrid internships: ten weeks full time or twelve weeks part time. At review, the National Office page displayed no current openings.

These details reflect the sources at the review date. An overview is not a live job offer. Check the official page for today's application status and the selected opening's written terms.

How to apply to American Civil Liberties Union

2. Read the role's student, location, schedule, writing-sample, and funding instructions.
3. Apply through the named ACLU office's official process and keep the opening and submission confirmation.

How to prepare a stronger application

Choose a writing, research, advocacy, communications, data, or operations example that fits the department.

Discuss civil-liberties work specifically and accurately; a generic statement about helping people is less useful than a grounded connection.
