About New Era Colorado

New Era Colorado Foundation is an innovative vehicle for hands-on democracy. We engage, educate, and train a new generation of active citizens and young leaders in Colorado.

We provide the resources and tools for young people to gain collective power in the political process. We're grassroots. We're nonpartisan. And we're all about empowering our generation to lead Colorado not left, not right, but forward. We do it all with one constant: making politics fun again. And yes, it's often on a bus.

Reviews

Intern

June 2018 - August 2018 Denver, CO
“- Incredibly friendly, supportive & collaborative work environment - Field-based experience (i.e. voter registration at local festivals, "hot-spot" cafes, bars etc.) - Opportunities to learn from staff members & volunteers about their professional experiences in one-on-one conversations in the field & in more formal settings. - Leadership opportunities with volunteers & other interns - Exposure to grassroots organizing and the political process (data entry, phone banking, interacting with local community members, learning effective language to reach out to people) - New Era's mission to engage young people in democracy is one that I'm passionate about - Educational component of the internship in weekly classroom sessions (i.e. What's on the CO ballot? How local & federal politics work, Digital Organizing etc.) -Local engagement in my community”
