Lac Courte Oreilles College Students Urged to Apply for Washington, D.C. Internship Program

The Udall Foundation is currently recruiting Native American college students to apply for its 10-week, Udall Native American Congressional Internship Program in Washington, D.C. This program is geared toward students who wish to learn more about the federal government and issues affecting Indian country.
The internship is fully-funded by the foundation and includes round-trip airfare, housing, per-diem for food and incidentals, and an educational stipend at the close of the program.
Interns will work inside congressional and agency offices and have the opportunity 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. Students of tribal colleges are especially encouraged to apply.
More information and the full 2013 application packet is available at www.udall.gov. Information is also available by clicking here. Applications must be postmarked by January 31, 2013 received at the Udall Foundation.
