Communications Internship
The communications internship will provide an excellent opportunity to learn about digital organizing, media advocacy, and multimedia storytelling strategies (including writing, photography, and filmmaking). The internship will help support communications for WORC’s regional organizing activities including involvement in federal, state, and local public policy work within the context of a rural, community‑based organization. The communications intern will be working with a variety of multimedia advocacy projects from social media campaigns, blogging, WORC’s website, newsletters, to press relations and more.
Responsibilities may include researching, writing, graphic design, video production, photography, and learning new media. Interns will be expected to undertake multiple projects with clear deliverables.
The interns will receive a stipend of $2,000 per month for up to three months. Start and end dates are flexible for the right candidate. Work is based out of our Billings, Montana, office, a LEED Platinum office building. Work is conducted from 8:30 am to 5:30 pm on weekdays, but may require occasional evening and weekend commitments for events and training.
