General Internships are unpaid unless funded by a grant opportunity or other funding partnership. General Interns will work with Atlantic Center staff to produce a project proposal prior to beginning the internship, and work on a project basis. Interns will be expected to attend regular staff meetings and occasionally present on their work to the public. The General Internship opportunity is for those passionate about furthering their understanding of the criminal legal system and an interest in nonprofit operations.
