Internships

The Connecticut League of Conservation Voters is a nonprofit organization working to educate voters and elected leaders on state environmental issues. We collaborate with dozens of groups to develop and support  good environmental policies at the state legislature, publish an annual Environmental Scorecard grading legislators on their environmental voting records, endorse candidates for state office who will make the environment a top priority, and help to get conservation-minded people informed and involved. 

Our interns assist us with all of these tasks and more. From attending briefings and hearings at the Capitol to helping with research on policies or legislation, current and prospective college students have the opportunity to be part of an important movement while earning credit towards their degree.

​HOW TO APPLY

Please email a cover note and resume to CTLCV  at apply@ctlcv.org.  Qualified candidates will be contacted. No calls please. Candidates must be currently enrolled in a college or graduate school, or law program. All interns report to our Hartford Office at 553 Farmington Avenue and work a minimum of 10 hours/week for 3 months or minimum required for school course.
