Udall Native American Congressional Internship Program


The Udall Foundation is currently recruiting Native American and Alaska Native students to apply to their internship program.

This ten-week summer internship in Washington, DC, for Native American and Alaska Native students who wish to learn more about the federal government and issues affecting Indian country.

The internship is fully funded: the Foundation provides:

• Round-trip airfare;
• Housing;
• Per-diem for food and incidentals;
• An educational stipend at the close of the program.

Interns work in congressional and agency offices where they have opportunities to research legislative issues important to tribal communities, network with key public officials and tribal advocacy groups, experience an insider’s view of the federal government, and enhance their understanding of nation-building and tribal self-governance.

The 2013 application is available at http://www.udall.gov/. The complete application package must be postmarked by January 31, 2013, at the Udall Foundation.
