Dear Chapter Leadership,
Student Veterans of America has been made aware of an outstanding internship opportunity from The United States International Council on Disabilities. They are seeking Veterans that are Political Science graduate students, recent graduates, and motivated juniors and seniors. Because disabled veterans have been typically underrepresented, veterans who identify as having a disability are encouraged to apply. However, all qualified applicants will be selected based on the conditions stated on the announcement. Please distribute this information to your SVA network and those who may be interested in this exciting summer internship in Washington, DC. Please use [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> for all questions and comments.
APPLICATIONS CLOSE JANUARY 28, 2015!
Youth in International Development and Foreign Affairs internship program
The summer 2015 Youth in International Development and Foreign Affairs internship program<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001H-CbWiOPo3gRYJ4ktfNYMMurwyMGXnMF4k34xyPSi6jiyRIc3jp6HjSXfsSdsJuOgFG8-y1-JrmYI6h0qrOn59ZMWpNrDR0w7NMX7AaOhL_evNixeLAMqqHE3A93074uMPJ4C9ZYJZv2gQsnOuWRvoBEKeWutiOLHpBp-5M9TrBWlgwPJQo5Mh-bG37M6KN4eahaDwpbV9c=&c=bAV_rvVqsfZUML5AwSiW4_PJFjhQSkucr-BJjRM-Kb7uMRKYSugP_g==&ch=cUxrLD6ZpSOc2NCVvIJTVWL-KS60Z2xH03FGS4TpaUlNOh6WHlgCcw==> remains open for applications until January 28, 2015.
The United States International Council on Disabilities (USICD) has coordinated this internship program since 2013. This program is geared for students and recent graduates from across the U.S. who intend to pursue a career in international development or foreign affairs.
The summer 2015 internship program will bring a group of talented graduate students, recent graduates, and rising juniors and seniors with disabilities to Washington, DC, for nine weeks. This will include a one-week training and orientation program followed by an eight-week internship at an international organization in the Washington, DC, area. Each intern is usually placed at a different organization. USICD will cover the cost of fully-accessible housing during the program, reimburse travel expenses to and from DC, and provide a limited stipend. It is anticipated that the program will run from May 24 to July 25, 2015. These dates may be subject to change.
Applicants must be U.S. citizens, must identify as a person with a disability, and must be either a student or a recent graduate with either a bachelor's degree or a graduate degree ("recent graduates" graduated between spring 2014 and spring 2015). Applications are accepted from candidates up to age 30. In limited circumstances (for example, U.S. veterans), some candidates may remain eligible up to age 35.
