Interns are placed in various Leadership Institute departments including LI Studios, Events, External Affairs, Political Training, International Training, Campus Reform, Employment Placement Services, Technology, Grassroots, Development, Online Programs, and more. Interns receive personal mentoring from their supervisors and complete high-priority projects.

Interns attend all LI trainings free of charge, host conservative leaders at private weekly dinners, visit Members of Congress on Capitol Hill, and experience all that D.C. has to offer. Each intern leads a discussion on a book that has shaped the conservative movement. No two days in the office are the same.

In addition to weekly speaker nights arranged by the Leadership Institute, interns are encouraged to attend issue briefings by other conservative organizations. Interns also go on group outings to Mount Vernon, the Briar Patch (Morton and Helen Blackwell's home in the Blue Ridge Mountains), the U.S. Capitol, and other national landmarks.

With a focus on the four pillars of development –- professional, personal, political and philosophical –- the program has a track record of success. Many interns take their training and experience at the Institute and directly apply it in the workforce or on their campus.

For more information about the program, please contact Eliza Thurston, LI's Intern Coordinator.
