Brooklyn Campaign Internship

The Abe George for Brooklyn District Attorney campaign is now accepting applications for our Campaign Internship Program. Interns will work closely with the candidate and campaign staff on all aspects of the campaign, including: policy research, event planning, field organizing, and voter outreach. The internship will provide students with broad experience working on a competitive New York City campaign with an experienced and professional team.

This is a great opportunity to get involved in politics at the grassroots level, to learn about campaigns, and to be part of a historic election in New York City.
