Undergraduate Community-Based Internships (UCBI) application open through Sunday, November 1!

UCBI is a paid internship program for undergraduates who are interested in working in nonprofits and public sector organizations.

Additionally, they participate in weekly cohort meetings led by UCBI student mentors.

Why participate in UCBI:

  • Dive into a topic or issue you’re passionate about and explore career opportunities

  • Learn more about power, privilege, identity, and systems of oppression through community engagement

  • Receive mentorship and coaching from UCBI mentors and nonprofit/public sector leaders

  • Engage in professional development opportunities and build your network with your cohort and partner organization
