The National Women’s Political Caucus (NWPC) is seeking part-time interns for work at the National office in downtown Washington, DC!
NWPC has a relaxed but lively work environment. Their staff is small so they rely heavily on their interns for the day-to-day operations of our organization.

The only unconditional requirement is an unwavering commitment to women’s rights!
