Internships and Staff Openings at APIAVote!

Intern with us this summer!

APIAVote is seeking intern applicants for this upcoming summer! The APIAVote Internship Program strives to encourage and cultivate young AAPI student leaders to explore a career in the public sector or the political arena. This internship program will also provide hands-on experience and training on how to organize and implement voter activities to increase the participation of AAPIs in the electoral process. Additionally, interns will have the opportunity to participate in coalition brown bag luncheon sessions as well as events such as the annual Congressional celebration to grow their networks and hear directly from AAPI leaders and changemakers. 

Interns will receive a $2,500 stipend for their 10-week internship, and start dates/work time is flexible to accommodate schedules and time zones. Please consider applying or passing this information along to anyone you think would be interested and a good fit – the application is live at apia.vote/intern-2021 and the deadline to apply is March 19, 2021 at 11:59 pm PST. Feel free to send any questions to Julie Wu at youngvoters@apiavote.org. 

Join our Team!

The Asian American and Pacific Islander community turned out at historic levels this past election cycle but it did not happen overnight.  It takes ongoing work year after year, and we must also engage voters for local municipal, county and statewide elections.  We are looking for additional team members to join us in this journey.  APIAVote is hiring and expanding our staffing.  We have two openings as we continue to seek to expand and develop local and national capacity for long-term sustainability in the area of civic participation and electoral engagement.

APPLY TODAY if you believe in community building and the value of civic engagement. For more detailed descriptions of the openings, please click on the position.
