  Native American Congressional Internships

The Native American Congressional Internship Program provides Native 
Americans and Alaska Natives with an insider's view of the federal 
government. Our ten-week internship in Washington, D.C., places students 
in Senate and House offices, committees, Cabinet departments and the 
White House, where they are able to observe government decision-making 
processes first-hand.

In 2009, the Foundation expects to award 12 Internships on the basis of 
merit to Native Americans and Alaska Natives who:

    * Are college juniors or seniors, recent graduates from tribal or
      four-year colleges, or graduate or law students;
    * Have demonstrated an interest in fields related to tribal public
      policy, such as tribal governance, tribal law, Native American
      education, Native American health, Native American justice,
      natural resource protection, cultural preservation and
      revitalization, and Native American economic development.
