About NVEEE
The National Voices for Equality, Education, and Enlightenment (NVEEE) is an award-winning, congressionally recognized national nonprofit organization dedicated to preventing bullying, violence, and suicide through education, mentorship, and community engagement. Our youth-centered programs promote leadership, mental wellness, and social responsibility across the United States.
Our Mission
To prevent bullying, violence, and suicide among youth, families, and communities through direct service, mentoring, and prevention education.
What We Do
NVEEE provides interactive educational dialogues and leadership programs that address bullying, mental health, social inequities, and stereotypes, designed to surface community-based solutions that support the health and well-being of all youth. Our dynamic, equity-based programs — which consistently fill to capacity — prepare youth and young adults to be socially responsible leaders. Student Peace Ambassadors who complete our comprehensive leadership curriculum often co-facilitate our programs, extending their impact into communities across the country.
Program Overview
NVEEE's College Internship Program offers part-time and full-time remote internship opportunities year-round across five committees. Interns contribute to real-world projects that directly support youth leadership, educational equity, and community empowerment while gaining substantive professional experience in the nonprofit sector.
- Part-time: 20–30 hours per week
- Full-time: 30–40 hours per week
Scheduling is flexible but should fall within Monday–Friday EST business hours. This is an unpaid opportunity. Academic credit may be arranged through your institution; NVEEE will provide all required supporting documentation upon request.
